I have a 160 Gig Dell Laptop which I want to partition to use for video work.
I used the Disk Management tool in Vista and requested a Disc Shrink on the C Drive. It only offered to shrink a max of 20 Gig. Ok I can accept that. Then right clicked on the new unallocated Drive , selected New Simple Volumne and followed the Wizard to format the drive as NTSF. It allocated the next drive letter (D) and I requested a Format.. Message came up not enough memory. Tried again and this time it allocated F Drive and I requested a quick format. Same result.
Spec of the system is 2 Gig Memory.
Can you help as I have now reduced my available C Drive by 20 GIG. Can I recover this or better still have a 20 Gig D Drive.

Thanks

Sylvia

What does Disk Management show? Did you create a partition in the new space?

Right-click Computer > Manage > Disk Management.
