Hi Aguy,
It's very nice that you posted here your resolution, as this is really common problem.
I had it too Acronis Disk Director.
It easily shows all info about HDD, and it's very clear for re-partitioning. My best recommendation, to my mind every one should have bootable CD with needed utilities like restore, copy, create, move, merge partitions, to be able to boot from it, if you can't boot OS.
By the way Acronis supports this tool.
