    Partition magic is not supported in these forums. I searched the Norton community (http://community.norton.com/norton/) and found this post dated from 4/7/2008.

    At this time, there are no plans to update Partition Magic. I apologize for the inconvenience; please let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks!

     I couldn't get it to work on windows 7 either but then again I have a very old version. There is a "Windows XP mode" in windows 7 but it doesnt work with all computers. Mine is one of them.

    Partition Magic is the only decent product Norton has ever put out (god knows it's not their bloated yet inept ani-virus LOL)! Why would they no longer support it????

    What is instead Partition Magic?
    I have heard that Gdisk will be redesigned to replace Partition Magic. I'm not sure that these rumors are true though. Gdisk has different capabilities.

    I use Partition Manager by Easeus; I have no financial ties to the company. I find it is as functional as Partition Magic ever was. I had used Partition Magic since version 4.

    Partition Manager supports Windows 7, 32-bit and 64-bit. The 32-bit version is free for "Home Users" (which is what I am).
