while it's on my mind I wanted to mention a product we recently used on our web server for this site to repartition a hard drive, the software is called Disk Director Suite 9 by a company called Acronis. It worked flawlessly to shift disk space from one partition to another on a Windows 2003 OS which is typically not supported by these disk utility programs that cost $50 (usually have to pay $500+ for high end software). It's $49.99 on Amazon, here's a link to it there.

If you need to repartition your hard drive (any Windows OS) it really is easy to use and works.

Acronis makes great disk management tools. Their imaging software is also great. I have been using True Image for years now to backup my system. On a fast notebook you make an image in les then 15 minutes from a 100 Gb harddisk.

Use True Image to back up primamry partition on all computers. It takes about five minutes to restore partition.
