-=PCTechTalk=- Partition Drive

Hi:

I want to try something new and want to know if I can do this.  My O/S,
documents, programs, etc. are all on C:\ and I'd like to separate the O/S to
its drive.  I only have the one internal drive, and have read about using
the disc management tool in windows but am unsure if I would need to start
over fresh (do a recovery, then partition, then restore my documents,
programs etc) or if I can partition the O/S as is.  I hope I'm making sense.
I've listed my computer specs below.  Thanks!

I also have an interest in downloading the Win 7 RC as a dual boot to
preview.  But, I'm unsure of partition allocations (how much space to
allocate for O/S, data files, etc).  I guess a good tutorial would work if
someone could point me in a reliable direction.  Googling gives answers, but
determining which are reliable and which would make me come back to the list
looking for help are a little difficult.

Thanks again!

Computer:       Toshiba Satellite P105-S6147
Processor:      Intel T2300 1.67GHz
RAM:            2GB
O/S:            Win Vista Home Premium x86 SP2
