Whatever you do, try to use Windows-based partitioning software and
preferably Partition Magic if you can.  I have had a bad experience
with a bug in the common Linux resizing software used in most distro's
which will make your Windows drive unable to boot unless you
re-format.

And backup your data before playing around with this stuff.
