Not sure why you can't resize the partition tbh.

Ah ok :)

Thanks

Whether this is true or Partition Magic doesn't read them right I can't say, but it makes sense to me that Partition Magic refuses to shrink partitions it believes to be full.  That would probably have undesirable results.  (Smilie)

My C Drive has 60gb free :) (V: has around 500mb thats why I want to resize the partition it so my Vista partition...taken from my C drive has more space...which would make my C drive space go lower :)

So, it makes good sense that the only thing you can do here is shrink D: (although it's hardly worth doing so, given it has less than 2GB free).  After you shrink D:, perhaps you could expand C: into the freed space.

What did you want to do, anyway?

Read up in this reply :)
