I have a 232 GB hard drive in my computer (OS Windows XP).
I have one primary partition, and 8 partitions in the secundary partition. 105 GB has not yet been allocated accordingly to disk managament .

Can anyone please tell me how to do that, without damaging anything in the current partitions?

Any advice is welcome !

That does not work : I already tried that, but it only allows me to make a primary partition. But doing that will destroy everything presently already on my hd. You can only have one primary partition on a hd.

Try this software Partition Magic

Download Partition Magic 8.0 Free Trial - Partition Magic allows you to create, resize and merge partitions. (http://www.soft32.com/download_151.html)

But you need to buy.


You can do the partition by using this software on running Windows without damaging your PC.
