What's a good free partitioning tool?

For Windows XP
There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

Installation disk should have partitioning tool. Otherwise "Ultimate Boot CD" has a wide variety of tools. http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/

Gparted live: http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php.  Works fine with NTFS partitions.

Without question you should use the Home Edition of Easeus Partition Manager.

I second this.  Gparted is the only partition tool I use.  I don't trust my hard drive with proprietary code.

Easeus Partition Manager is the best option if do not want getting into the mess of booting rescue distributions and committing some serious damage to your disk due to lack of knowledge.I have used parted magic/gparted/ and Easeus partition manager.I would suggest Easeus Partition Manager cause its works seamlessly and its free also.
