Sweet, thanks again for the info. If this blasted defrag would finish, I could tell you how it goes. (That is the reason I can only shrink by 428 megs right? I want to shrink it like 30 gigs so I have room for Ubuntu...) (Defrag went to 60% in the first hour... but it's been stuck there for the last two. It seems to be moving slowly through Freelancer files...)
