[Pending] Expand a Partition?
I have two partitions on my HD:
1 for Windows - 6 Gigs
1 for Installed software etc - the rest of the HD
I realised that the size of the partition containing Windows is a little too small.
Is there any way I can add more space to the Windows partition? I JUST formatted and reinstalled last week and I don't feel like doing it again. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hey Debutante!
I'm afraid you need software like Partition Magic to perform this action. You can size a partition up through Windows if there's unallocated space on the disk only. You can't make a partition smaller. Blue |

Why is it too small?
XP takes up 1.5GB How many many programs do you intend to install?
