Partitioning and vista

[trainwizard]

I hate Vista. So I am trying to downgrad my vista laptop to XP but I still want to keep vista and everything on it without reinstalling. But I can't seem to find a way to Partition the master in to two seperate chunks (no free unalloted space). Im not sure if I should use DOS, some third party program, or vista itself. Thanks for reading.

Any partition manager can do this. Acronis etc

Try GParted. It's used my Linux and Windows. NTFS and FAT32 are able to be changed in every detail. Just burn the ISO to a CDR.
