[Papyrus-L] Papyrus under Partition Magic/Commander etc?

[YColeman]

At the beginning of 2003 I had major problems with running Papyrus on XP, and the solution that was effective for me was to split the hard drive with Partition Magic and then load the relevant components of Office 2000 on the new drive. Documents that require Papyrus are managed on the "new E" drive whilst all other documents are managed via XP. I found I did not require a dual-boot system.

  Dear Papyrus community,
      Has anyone tried using a partitioning program such as Partition Magic
  or Partition Commander to try to operate Papyrus?  It seems to me the only
  serious limitation to using Papyrus under Windows XP is the file-sharing
  problem when using the Clipboard.  But running lower versions of Windows on
  new machines means loss of functionality, such as access to USB ports, etc.
  One solution might be to run two versions of Windows simultaneously.  I've
  not tried these partitioning programs, but they seem to promise file
  sharing etc between partitions.
