I can understand and follow all that you say and, viewed theoretically, it is very good. Where I am at a complete loss is how to practically modify the partition containing Windows. I suppose I should read up on gparted before going any further. Norman
gparted is easy! Fire it up and browse to the NTFS partition you want to resize, and select it. Click on the 'partition' menu and there is an option to 'resize/move'. The rest is easy, and I can honestly say it hasn't let me down once .... but then I've never had a power failure or a computer hardware problem during the re-sizing - which takes quite a while! Occasionally, my wife manages to trip one or more mcb's when she is getting stuff out of the pantry .... there's no way around that.
