i have a new hdd with windows xp on it but i want to put win 7 on it too. how would i re partition it w/o losing data?? i tried to use gparted but when i made a new part. in the empty space i made, i got a big error and my machine kept restarting. do i have to free up the space then make the new partition with the device manager?

Make sure you defrag the harddrive a couple of times in windows first before you resize it.
