Hi,
I am trying to dual boot my system and install Fedora beside Visa. I followed your guidelines on the "Working Around Windows Vista's "Shrink Volume" Inadequacy Problems", and after using PerfectDisk for a couple of times and its system file defragmentation utility, Visa lets me to shrink up to 80GB now. But when I try to shrink, it shows the message "There is not enough space available on the disk(s) to complete this operation". I donno how to fix this. Do you think that I should use some 3rd party tools? If so which is the best? GParted?

Plz help faster!
thx in advance!

Welcome Haddock. Although I have not used it myself, GParted is usually the one recommended by various people on this forum.
