OK, I know the built in feature will let you resize a partition (including C), but not by a lot (ie 320 gig drive all C. Vista will only let me lower the size of C by 80 gig ! Not enough).
The old dos standbys like partition magic ect don't work under Vista giving an error in the partition table which if you fix screws the drive and you have to reformat. The win untils won't work because they won't operate on the drive with the op system on it!
So, anyone know how to resize a C drive with Vista running on it ? (other than, image C, reformat, repartition and reload the image)...
