Yeah. Get a partitioning tool (like Partition Magic, you may also be able to find one <a href="http://www.pricelessware.org/2003/about2003PL.htm">here</a>). Defrag first, BACK UP YOUR DATA, and resize them. Make sure you backup though, partitioning tools can be pretty finicky.

Partiiton Magic works well.
BootIt NG works well. Ranish Partition Manager (free) is reported to work well. You can find this, and many other tools, on the Ultimate Boot CD. Do a Google search on the above products and you'll find their matching web sites. |
maybe try moving your paging file to the other partition, and maybe you can choose your burner's temp directory somewhere in the settings.

Partition Magic caused physical damage to my brother's HDD. I would be very, very cautious of using it. He had to RMA it back to the company claiming that it simply stopped working.
I've heard very good things about it and very bad things about it, so I don't really know what the final verdict is on it. Just letting ya know that when it fucks up, it fucks up bad. -Lasereth |
Don't use Partition Magic. I personally have bad resize stories, as do many other people. Just backup what you need and repartition.
and with "make it so when i burn CD's it dont put the temp files on my small HD" ..... obviously depends on the burner software you're using.... press F1 for help. |
I dunno how to do it but it extremely beneficial to have it. That way you can have all of your Windows and system files on a small one and all your data on the large one, therefore if you get a virus and you wanna reinstall Windows, your data is still secure.
