You could try gparted - info / download here:

Although linux it will handle NTFS and FAT partitions.
The liveCD version is a standalone bootable CD so you can use it on Windoze.
I tried it once to see how it worked. Not a wonderful interface but seems
ok.
Don't know how it will perform with big partitions.
