Yes you can, I did that on my laptop. Works perfect but name the disk something so you can tell the difference.

I don't think you have to change drive labels unless the partition you're going to be installing to is not the first partition of the disk. In which case, after installation you'll want to right click My Computer > Manage, Drive management? And assign a letter to the partition you can't see. This is because Vista and later will name the INSTALL partition C:\, not necessarily the FIRST, like under XP.
Also, you'd want to google something more like "400 gigabytes in/to megabytes". You've got to type the units out if you want the answer quickly.

i wasnt thinking.
there is a max you can shrink+ 1 GB=1024MB (about 1000). which works cause didnt need precise. just need to free up space for D
EDIT: i cant add space to D. i can only replace it to the drive i took the space from

Then shrink the size of the other partitions or something.

1GB=1024MB from memory. You can partition your hdd. either using third party software or windows.

Well, the U.S. is morally poor, but..
As far as I know, the official RC isn't available from them anymore. (That is, pics or it didn't happen.)

Not available in Denmark as well, so I guess it's world wide.
