You need a third-party partition manager such as Acronis
Disk Directory.

As Pegasus said, you need a third party tool. Like Symantec Partition Magic
(http://www.symantec.com/home_homeoffice/products/overview.jsp?pcid=sp&pvid=pm80
). Or you can try one of this free tools:

My favorite is Ultimate Boot CD.

Unfortunately, to do that, you really need one of the tools that I (and
Pegasus) already mention in the previous posts. The Ultimate Boot CD
however, it offer you the support for all you need to do, but first you need
to backup your data! Download the ISO, burn it on CD, restart, boot from CD,
go to partition tools, run Ranish Partition Manager (it can create, copy,
and resize primary and extended partitions). As usual, all those tools are
for EXPERIENCED USERS ONLY; this version is a freeware and does not offer
any guaranties; maybe it will be a good idea to look for help in your local
computer store.
