right, im pretty sure the program is called easyBCD, download that and they'll be some documentation elsewhere on the net about how to sort it out.

Its to do with boot files of something or other.

Hmm, I tried creating a partition by doing this. After I typed my amount and clicked shrink a error appeared saying Access Denied. The title of the window was Logical Disk Manager

How Comes I Can Only Shrink By Like 64Mb? How Do I Make It More

[Nyohttekotte]

Yes it will, you basically make seperated segments on a hard drive. Think of it as sepearting a fish tank with a divider. If you remove divider, it goes back to normal :)

With the MiniTool partition manager wizard, it is easy for you to delete partition, copy partition , create partition and other operations. Some editions are FREEEEE. Any of you who need it can have a try.
