You have posted in the wrong forum. You are in "sound cards and speakers". You want this thread in "Computer Memory and Hard Drives"

And in reply to yuor question I have no idea lol Im a noob but sure someone can help you. Ohh and in my experience, the only way to change partion size you have to format your computer. But I could be wrong.

Also anouther thing you could try is movingthe programmes either uninstall them and reinstall to a different drive/partion. Or there is a handy tool on system mechanic that relocates the softwear for you. Unfortunately this takes ages but I tried it on a small programme (x-fire) and it worked beutifully. It changes and moves the registry files and everything.

Here is where you will recieve a free trial of system mechanic.

Infact looking at these new features Imay get the free trial of System Mechanic 6 myself
