    How do I remove the 10 GB, 100% free, EISA partition form my hard drive without reformatting? I am also having trouble shrinking the main volume, I have 44% free, 82 GB free, but it will only shink the volume by 87 MB. I did disk cleanup and defrag but I can still only shrink it by 87 MB and I need at least 16 GB for Windows 7. HELP.

    Thanks
