[QUOTE="mascot, post: 252053, member: 60586"] Picked up my last parts yesterday including the Gigabyte GA-MA78-xxxxx board. Put it all together except for HDD last night and the motherboard really blew me away. The quality of the build is awesome! Also, I noticed the HDMI 1.3 certification on their homepage. It has not been there before, and I'm almost sure this will solve the problems with HDMI full hd audio with Power DVD 8.0. Now I have 1 problem. The HDD I'm gonna put it is a 500 gb samsung spinpoint with about 4000 gb of files. How can I put a new partition on it (another partition) and keep the data? (I'm gonna put it in HTPC and install windows xp, media portal etc on the new partition but I still need the files on the other partition from before... I have partition manager and partition magic but I'm not sure how to do it without risk of losing all the data on its other partition... "logical drive" or not?? Can someone please help me out its the last part of the build. [/QUOTE]
