I used the in built disk utility in vista to partition my 320G disk, but i cant reduce the OS drive to below 170GB. Which software can i use to partition that drive ? Can i use partition magic in xp sp2 compatibility mode? Are there any issues? Is there any open source program? Pls guide me....

Try EASEUS Partition Manager at *www.partition-tool.com/ which supports Vista and is free for Home use... I used it for my Dell 1525 laptop where 2 hidden partitions made it impossible for me to use the built in tool to resize C: into 2 partitions.

To partition in Vista Paragon Partition Manager 9.0 or above is the best but not free. I am using it without problems.
