I've seen both of these programs. fips didn't want to work for me for some 
reason, and parted only wanted to shrink my windows partition by like 1 gig 
(even after I defragged). I guess most of the time fips works pretty well 
though, from what friends of mine have told me. Mandrake's DiskDrake tool can 
also resize, and that does work very nicely (if you run Mandrake...)
