Is there any way to make the windows partition bigger after I have already made it?


Also If I do have to re-install is there any way I can change the name of the volume during setup...

Right now it is named "Untitled" and I can't change it b/c it is NTFS...

Please Help!!!!

Renaming Windows Partition

I can't answer the partitioning question, but I think it will be "no".

As to the renaming of your windows partition just reboot into windows, from the start menu select "my computer", right click on your hard drive icon, left click on properties and name the drive whatever you choose. Mine is named "XP Pro".

When you reboot into OS X the new name will be exhibited instead of "untitled".

Hope this helps.
