Resizing MAY require you have enough free space to do the task. Also, on the utility I use, the actual resizing takes place during reboot, which you must do just after setting your resize options.

The steps are; resize first creating a free/unused partition, reboot, then format the new partition.

I use Partition Magic on my home PC, a very good utility for this task IMHO.
