| Vista x64 Ultimate SP2, Windows 7 Ultimate x64 | Re: Partition drive by shrinking in Disk management Hello Microsofthater, and welcome to Vista Forums. The size of the available space to be shrunk can be restricted by the amount of space currently allocated to on the hard drive for the virtual memory page file, System Restore max size, and hibernation files. The red warning box under step 6 in the tutorial below can explain more about this and help you work around this to a point. Disk Management - Shrink Partition Hope this helps, Shawn |
