You may have to use a 3rd party utility to expand D: into the free space, then shrink it from the other end, providing the necessary space for the C: partition to expand.
Another option is to create a partition in the free space and point your My Documents (or data) storage to it. -------------------- - John

I don't know whether it is Vista compatible but I would suggest Gparted which is very much user friendly
