I would back up all my data and run windows setup, I would then delete all the partitions, format and made new partitions the way you desire. (you could backup your onto dvd disks by installing a dvd burner (external would be really easy to install and you could even return it to the store if you wouldn't need it after that)

Another way which might screw things up is to get a third party software or go to start>control panel>administrative tools> computer management> disk management and there you can make your changes but be careful, backup your data before you start messing with partitions and drive names.

Good Luck, Cyberdyne

yes there is. partition resizer and partition logic will do. partition magic is only an option i just use this as one of my utility.

You can go to softpedia and search for partition, then filter it as freeware. Just click the advance search. that'll do.

cheers :D
