ive had to recently format EVERYTHING due to vista RC1 messing up hardware config and my BIOS somehow...god knows whay it did it but it did

anyway i jsut installed windows straight onto my hard drive without partitions jsut for simplicity sake... but i now want to create my partitions, i know their is software out thier that can help me with this but i have no clue what so ever which one to use, ive checked out a few programs but some said do not work with SATA hard drives which is a bugger because its a SATA hard drive i need to partition
