Yes.  Once I cloned [oldWin2K] to [newWin2K], I then modified the
VirtualBox (pointed it to [newWin2K], booted up, and watched a
magnificent Blue Screen Of Death.  Ah, well.  Rebooted, and it was fine
(skipped the optional checkdisk), but sure enough, Windows still "saw"
its C drive as being 4GB, rather than 55GB.

So, pointed to the gparted ISO, booted from that, and resized the
partition.  Unmounted ISO, rebooted, and Windows is now convinced it's
55GB.
