If you don't want to re-install Windows, I've had luck with the GParted Linux utility. You can boot from a rescue CD or from a Linux live cd to run it. Make sure you do a backup of the hard drive first. After you resize the partition, you may have to boot from a Windows 7 disc and choose the repair option to make the partition bootable.

How do I proceed?
Frag the Windows install!
Probably best to reinstall Windows and in the *Windows setup* bit set the initial partition size you want. When I dual-booted, I typically had better luck doing it that way than resizing.
