Disk Partition Utility that works better than Partition Magic 8

After being in the market for more than several years without any update and upgrade, Partition Magic 8.0 is showing it's age, and I need to find another boot management and disk partition solution. For instance, it failed to recognized partitions tocuhed by Acronis TrueImage 9.0, even though the Disc Management utility of the Windows XP OS has NOT PROBLEM recognizing that parttion. This shows the incompetance of Partition Magic 8.

Luckily, there are other products in the market, both in open source world in commerical world, that can fill the gap:

- Acronis Disk Director Suite 9.0 (Boot Manager)
- Smart Boot Manager
- Acronis Power Utilities 2005
