Repartition the disk without losing OS

I have a 5 year old PC with single partition on 40GB harddisk (10GB free) and widows XP installed. I want to create another partition and install Ubuntu on it. Is it possible to re-partition the disk without losing the windows XP ?

"HI

First I would suggest that you use WUBI Installer. Here: http://wubi-installerdotorg/

What it lets you do is install ubuntu without partition your drive. And you can uninstall it like any other program in your windows XP OS.

Or if you really want to partition your drive use Easus Partition Manager. http://www.partition-tool.com/
You can divide your drive without losing your Data. :)

You should probably back up just in case though"
