Changing partition sizes in win2k

I currently have win2k loaded on my machine on a 60 gig drive with a 2gb C: partition with windows on it and a 54gb D: partition with everything else on it. The 2gb isn't really cutting it on the C: drive as alot of stuff insists on installing itself in C and i now only have about 100 meg free and its rapidly filling up. Both partition are NTFS, so i'm wondering is there any easy way i can allocate some of the space, maybe 3 gig, of the D: drive onto the C: drive. I dont know much about this, so any simple advice is greatly appreciated, thanks.
 
Partition Magic can move some space from d: to c:.

Or you could back everything up to another drive with DriveImage, repartition and then restore.
 
ok, i downloaded the partionmagic demo from the website, does anyone know how i go about moving some free space. It also says i should backup my current data with an imaging program, how do i do this? thanks.
 
are you sure, it gives me the option to balance space or something which would give each partition like ~26 gb, or could I take some of the space from D: make it free, then allocate free space to C:. I dont know since i havent gone through with anything and dont know if features are locked or whatnot.
 
Ok, i see what you mean, the demo doesnt actually let you go through with anything, just shows you what would have happened. Are there any reliable programs that do this for free or is there some way i can get partition magic to work for one thing without paying 70 bucks or whatever.
 
Come on man. Companies that put out good products should be supported. Powerquest puts out great products. If you need it, buy it. Looking for scams or asking repeatedly for free software is frowned upon here.
