All I can say is that it worked flawlessly for me, though I recommend
turning off virtual memory in windows first and running its disk
defragger seeing as XP seems to place its swap at the end of the disk,
and naturally marks it as unmovable, so without disabling VM you don't
get much flexibility when you go to use ntfsresize.
