Use software like Partition Magic. You can also backup your drive with a
disk imaging software like Ghost, repartition your hard drive and then
restore your drive.

If you only want to make some tests/development; you can also use software
like VirtualPC 2004 to run other OS from inside a window on your primary
operating system. This is the solution that I use personally.

Right-click on MyComputer and choose Manage, then expand Storage and choose
Disk Management. That assumes that you have the free space on your drive.
You may have to defragment your drive first. Be careful, back up first. This
is newsgroup is devoted to Microsoft Access databases. You are much more
likely to find a good answer answer in a group devoted to your subject.
