Partition Magic Ver8 and Vista's NTFS

Hi all,

I have a Toshiba A135-S4427 Notebook that came preinstalled with Vista Home
Premium.
I want to use Partition Magic ver-8 to repartition the HDD into 3 total
partitions,
in other words - I want to creat 2 additional partitions.

I read on another board the following:
....Vista has a different NTFS than XP. It is a known issue that formatting a
drive/partition with Vista installed with a 3rd-party partitioning
application will be sure to create problems, again due to the different NTFS
format, since there are currently no compatible partitioning applications out
that work with Vista.

If I can get Partition Magic 8 to JUST create the partitions but NOT format
them, will Vista's disk management format them correctly to the right NTFS
for Vista?

Thanks a bunch.
Cin
