Hey,
I made the sizable mistake of only partitioning 5 GBs of Hard Drive space when installing Windows XP. Now I would like/need to have more, but how in world do I add more/re-do the whole thing over again so I have more. I am obviously not too knowledgeable when it comes to Boot Camp so any help would be certainly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.

As far as I know, you can't resize the partition after the fact. Its unfortunate, but it might be a good prompt to buy an inexpensive external harddrive and just keep the Windows system files on the Bootcamp partition for easy reformatting.

Thats what I've done and it works well for me.
