Spacemonger will work on Vista too. You generally need to have experience to know what is needed and what isn't. Look at your second partition and determine if there are files on it If you have partitioning software you could move some space from the 2nd partition to the first.
Your best bet would be to get rid of some of the junk on the 1st partition as more than likely the 2nd partition is bootable and has your Vista Install files on it. You really don't want to mess around with it unless you have made a install DVD and know what you doing.
Sorry hard to be more specific without having the computer in front of me.

That space monger is pretty cool. There is recovery stuff on the secnd drive. So I will leave it. I will look more at what space monger is showing me and see what I can get rid of. I'll do a print screen and show you guys. Not tonight tho, getting to late to start mucking around on here. ;D

i find it hard to believe your restore partition is 50+GB's in size, restore partitions are usually only around 5GB's. if you've all the stuff backed up to an external drive, i'd be tempted to actually try and run a restore on that laptop to set it to as new condition, usually all you have is a hidden partition that you can't see and a single partition(c) where the operating system is and all data is stored. for you to have 2 partitions of roughly equal size i'd guess someone already resized the main partition into 2 for some reason.
