I've used GParted Live CD in the past with success, it's a linux boot disk designed for partitoning. I should have mentioned that despite being a linux disk, it works for sorting out windows partitions too. I split my laptop up to install the windows 7 beta using this.

GParted is nice and easy, and it is included in Live DVDs such as Ubuntu and Knoppix. – Aputsiaq May 2 '09 at 13:40
