Partitioning hard drive

[aethereal]

I'm trying to make a 16 gb hard drive partition on my computer so that I can install windows 7. I have 140gb total on C, and 45.4 gb free. However, the vista program is only letting me shrink it by 3.7 gb. Any advice would be appreciated.

Hello Aethereal, and welcome to Vista Forums.

The items in the WARNING box under step 6 (STEP ONE) in this tutorial below may help you free up the space to be able to shrink it.
