I have Win 7 home premium. I will find out what tools for
partitioning/backup came with it and decide on my next course of
action.

Windows comes with a resizer: right click on "my computer" > manage

diskmanager. The next step is fuzzy in my memory: right click on the

drive> reszie? Windows will now resize the partition, reboot and run
chck disk if needed first, reboot, re-run chck disk. This eliminates
the need for manual intervention to ensure your NTFS is in a state that
can safely shrink. Windows will also not allow you to shrink the
partition smaller then the data will fit on.
