Julian, My advice is: use a Windows tool for partition resizing, as your guest is Windows 7 after all. Remember that the VM you're working on is set as Windows, not Linux, attempting to boot a Linux ISO on a guest VM configured for Windows is asking for trouble. as you found out. There's plenty of Windows apps to resize a partition, some of them freeware. See here http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/resize-a-partition-for-free-in-windows-vista/ Ask again if you need more help...
