Making the Windows C: Drice partition larger

[pabloB]

Hi there,

Real idiot question here!!

I have Partition Manager 8.5,. I'm trying to make my windows partition bigger as there's only a gig or so left so want to use the other 10 or so GB remaining on my Raptor. The stupid thing is Partition Manager won't do it because C is in use which is quite right due to windows. How the heck to I get around this and make this partition bigger by using this spare 10 gb?

Apologies for stupidity!

what it doesn't let you set it, and do it on reboot? what crap software

gparted is a live booting cd (no need to install software) that will do it for you

lol no it just says C: is currently in use and cannot complete the action - maybe i'm missing something!

I cannot see this kind of option anywhere!?

Partition magic doesn't work with Vista apparently or does it?

Any other options? haven't tried beldd's option yet but will give that a look
