    Download the gParted Live CD.

    Create the bootable CD from the ISO imaging using your favorite CD burning application. Make sure to burn as "disc at once" not "track at once", otherwise the CD won't burn properly.

    Boot your computer from the gParted-Live CD, resize the "Native Linux" partition, make sure you apply changes or the partition won't resize. Now resize your Windows partition to use all free space, again make sure you apply changes or the partition won't resize.

    WARNING: Manipulating partition sizes sometimes can corrupt the MBR resulting in your computer no longer being able to boot.

    NOTE: A Linux partition typical is 4 partitions. Boot, Root, Swap and Native. The Native Partition is the one you want to resize.
