Partition magic will do it.

thanks for the advice. is there a way i can do this without 3rd party software? either thru bios or dos or windows GUI?

Not without losing your data.
There are some freeware repartition applications out there, but I personally haven't had any luck with them.

You must use partion magic for 2000 and always make a backup.

It works as long as the file system is NTFS..

mstarret,

There are alternatives to a commercial third-party program. Please see my earlier post.
