Resize the system partition

Hello,

How can I resize the boot or system partition?

After reinstalling Vista, the old system Disk C became bootable... now, I
can't resize it... :(

From the Disk Management Help:

"For logical drives, boot, or system volumes, you can extend the volume only
into contiguous space and only if the disk can be upgraded to a dynamic
disk. For other volumes, you can extend the volume into noncontiguous space,
but you will be prompted to convert the disk to dynamic."

Perhaps it might help if you described the drive size and free space.

You need to use a third party partitioning utility such as BootItNG
from www.terabyteunlimited.com

Good luck
