Changing Windows XP partitions from primary to logicial.

[computerkiller]

I bought a 500Gig hard drive and partitioned it into e: and f: drive.
Unfortunately the f: drive is labeled as the primary partition. Since I
already transfered my files to the drive I do not want to format it. Does
anyone know how to make e: the primary partition with out destroying the data.
