How to Resize an NTFS Partition in Windows XP

1. Click the Windows 'Start' button and click 'Control Panel.' Click 'Administrative Tools' and then double-click 'Computer Management.' In the opened window, select 'Disk Management' to view your hard drive configurations.
2. Right-click the NTFS disk partition you want to change and select 'Resize.' This opens a new dialog box where you set the size of the partition.
3. Enter a new size in the text box labeled 'Partition size.' This value is entered in megabytes (MB). Therefore, if you want to size it as 2 gigabytes (GB), enter '2000' into the text box.
4. Click 'OK' to save your settings. If prompted to restart, click the 'Restart' button to reboot your machine for the settings to take effect.
