    use the recovery partition instead. Its easier, quicker and straightforward. Hit F9 at boot time and follow the prompts :)

    For some unknown reasons, ASUS recovery discs would not let you partition your HD as you like. All is not lost though as you can use partition magic to repartition your HD at your own free will.

    First, load the recovery cd (the one with the OS) in your drive. The recovery process will start copying windows to your HD. Some time later, it will ask you to insert the driver cd which you have to load. That's about it
