Cannot Create New Partition

Hi Dears,

I installed full version Acronis*Disk Director Server in my Windows server 2003 standard edition for crating a new partion. currenly have only one partion ( c drive, 250 GB ). I need to create two partion in server. When I am creating a new partion ,getting an error " Acronic DIsk Director Server was not able to create the partition because there is no enough free space on the selected hard disk drive ".
But, a lots of free space available in Hard Disk.
I re-installed the software. But , still the error.
Pls help me....
How to solve the error...?

Regards,

Shi

 

Defragment; use a product that can do boot-time defrag also, and that will try to put folders/files to beginning of drive as much as possible (eg purchase oo defrag, diskeeper, etc).
Create acronis bootable media.
Boot on abc, and start repartitioning from there.

 

I am creating partition using Remote Desktop...?
How to solve this error..?

Please help me..

Oh no! I had a very bad experience with Acronis Disk Director . Toss it and go to Paragon Partition Manager, at least you can find more stability there...

 

Have you tried this?
And if your pagefile and/or mft happens to be at the end of the partition, that could also prevent a resizing.
