Norton Ghost?
Partition Magic?

Always assuming you haven't got more than 40GB on the partition, of course. :ermm:

partition magic is a great tool for those kind of jobs... easy to use and powerful...

The easiest & most reliable imo is AME. See my sig.

Uh remove the partitions. Make 1 big partition then clone it. Then repartition.

wow never tried such thing! Sounds risky.

You better make sure your data is backed up first!
