There are a few programs out the that will partition a drive without reloading windows (losing any of your information) Partition magic is the one I use, But be careful if you have important information on the drive.

yeah, windows partition utility won't allow you to repartition system drive without reformating it. You need to use 3d party partitioning software, for example disk director.

Yes, you can still do it with the use of 'partition management software' . There are plenty of them like 'acronis', 'paragon' and 'ranix' etc. Use any of them and be happy.
