You need to use a program that deals with partitioning. A popular one is Norton Partition Magic. You will need to purchase the program and then install it. From there you "shrink" the original partition and leave the rest for the second partition. Its pretty self explanatory and easy to use the great thing about it is it works "on the fly". Good Luck!
