Hi all members.

 

I need your help to the issue:

 

I have a hard drive of 120GB with Vista: two partitions of 60GB. 2nd partition is totally empty. I want to expand first partition with e.g. 20GB of 2nd one.

Having both gparted and PartedMagic boot from, both stop expanding process with error message of hard drive bad sectors.

 

Is there a way to discard/dismiss the bad sectors existence message, and complete expanding?

 

p.s. I have already a full disk backup made by CloneCD. Seems very strange to me the fact that, CloneCD completes disk cloning of this bad sectors hard drive, but gparted and PartedMagic do not.

 

Thank you!
