Hi

1) run hard disk diagnostics ( from hard drive manufacturer)
2) run chkdsk on d: & c:
3)
Run disk cleanup
4) run ccleaner. (Piriform )
5) run defragmenter on c:
All intended to make partitioning easier and drive is not damaged or corrupt
6) backup my documents incase something goes wrong

7) choose your favourite partitioning software which comes on a. Bootable cd or USB
If you are not familiar with any look at gparted project which is a free Linux live CD . There are a number of other companies offering free versions of slightly restricted versions of commercial products

Regards

Mike Barnes
