However, I have a friend who used a package he got off the internet called "Partition Magic". He split a large C: drive into two partitions, and his data was left intact. Note that you do need to have a fair amount of available space and you do need to defragment the drive before doing this. The instructions always say to back up your data first. If this were possible, you should just fdisk and then reinstall everything from the backup! It's a standard disclaimer. Few people can backup data first, and few people do.
