There is a utility called FIPS that should be on the CD-ROM, on you should
be able to find it on the Net.  It will allow you (after a COMPLETE defrag)
to resize your partition.  (On your drive C for instance).  I'm sure that
you can find some documentation on the net for the software, it runs under
DOS.
