Disk Manager not allowing me to shrink partition...

Actually, with the BootIT NG diskette you simply cancel out of installation
and work from the disk. It will allow the partition resizing to be done at
no cost.

Hi,

It means there is a locked file close to the end of the partition and, as
has been indicated by others, you will need a third party partitioning
utility to do this.

If you are trying to shrink the C or boot partition then it won't. You
will need third-party software to do this.
A favorite is BootIT NG.

Err - You just Err might be right <sigh>. He just might need Err third party software to solve
his Err needs <sigh>
 
I tried with EASEUS Partition Master 4 Home Edition. But during the partition
activity, when it asked to reboot, it could not find the batch file.
