Hi alrahal - Welcome to w7forums

Look in "Control Panel >> System and Security >> Administrative Tools >> Computer Management >> Disk Management". From there you can shrink a partition without damaging the files. That will clear space for a new partition.

There are also freeware applications that you can use instead. If you prefer everyone can give you advice as to their favorite. :)

The one in Windows 7 will be fine. Make sure beforehand to create a restore point, in case you change your mind, or if something doesn't go as planned. If you don't to use that one, there are many free ones, GParted is a popular one. Welcome to the forums, alrahal! Come back whenever you want, should you need anything, that's what we're here for.
