Default XP Pro - Extending hard drive partitioning

I have a hdd that has been poorly partitioned and am unsure of how to go about correcting this.

The hard drive is 250 gb.
The boot partition is 8 GB. There is one other partition that is 120 gb & the rest of the space is unallocated.

How would I go about enlarging my boot partition to a more reasonable size (maybe half the disk) with the remainder for data storage.

Thanks for the help!
