    Hi friend, you can try Hiren Boot 8.7, Partition Magic Pro to re-partition your hard disk to make room for Windows. It is fast and easy.

    i wont suggest you to use Partition Magic.
    use GParted LiveCD. it free, only 30MB and one of the best partition Manager.

    Some distro, like Damn Small Linux, can "boot" inside Windows.

    Another solution would be to use a emulator like VM Player, so you can install the distro of your choice.
