Gerard, I just finished using Gparted v.0.3.3 which I d/l Friday from Sourceforge.net. Yesterday I used it to resize the NTFS partition on a Sony VAIO VGN-FJ series laptop. It worked beautifully and I was able to shrink the WinXP partition and make myself a 50GiB partition on a 100GiB HD. Ubuntu Dapper will soon be installed there. After I finished up doing the re-size job, I held my breath and re-booted and WinXP Pro came up as usual. It did perform a Diskchk before reaching the login screen which showed no disk errors. I will now use this program on all future installs I do. Your mileage may vary.....
