Windows XP Home Partitioning.

My SO is always filling her computers up with stuff.

She has a Sony, factory partitioned with a 'C' and 'D' drives (one physical drive), about 15 Gigs and 35 Gigs in size. Running XP Home.

Of course, between her and Bill Gates, the 'C' drive is full. The 'D' drive is basically empty.

How do I adjust the sizes of the partition? Please don't tell me to delete the unused stuff on her 'C' drive, I have done that twice in 2 months, and it fills right back up.

Please don't tell me to get a new SO, I have trained this one well, and except for her packrat online habits is very tolerant of my faults(Porsches).


While we are on it, the Backup program in XP Home was not loaded on the install by default. This is one of those Sony's that did not come with WinXP discs. I know about the install procedure if you have the discs, but that isn't the case here. Microsoft Backup for XP is not available anywhere on MS sites.

What does everyone do for that? Is there a freebie that works available? Or does someone have a site that has the MS version on it?


As always, thanks in advance. I cannot wait until the fing election is over and I can come back to Pelican OT and see nothing but OT.
