i tried installing windows on my macbook pro today. I accedentily parted my harddrive in 2 pieces, the windows-side having 6GB. I'd like to make that 20. can i still change this?
It also didn't recognise my windows-installation disk... annoying
 
If you haven't installed Windows yet, you can. Just go into Boot Camp setup, tell it to restore your disk to a single partition, open it again and then repartition it.

As for not recognizing your Windows install disc, is it Windows XP SP2 or any edition of Windows Vista (which is what Boot Camp officially supports)?
 
ok I've got the disk-thing solved... i feel so stupid about the bootcamp! Does anybody know how to make it bigger?
I could remove it, but i don't really dear to do that?

how do i go into this Boot Camp Setup? is that by just clicking on it? How do i restore my disk to single partition? When i click on bootcamp i get these options that i would consider: (i have to translate) "clean up" or "remove"
Thank you!

Boot Camp Assistant, in your Utilities folder. "Remove" is what you want.
