Thanks for that Brian. I haven't used any Linux partitioning tools, but if they are GUI based I would be able to get my head round them :)
I might actually have a look at BartPE, I think there is a tool called WinXPLite or something as well that can strip down windows and put it on a removable device, could be useful to keep around.... Just fired up the Partition logic site though, looks and sounds very promising. Had a search for these sorts of things a while ago but came up blank, thanks for the links.
