Yes you can ! My Windows 7 laptop came with it's 232 GB hard-drive equally split into two partitions. One has Windows on it, the other is the recovery partition. However - the recovery data uses less than 8GB of the space - so I moved the partition with the aid of Ease-US software (see related link). I didn't need to do extensive back-ups or re-load any software. It moved the partition seamlessly and safely - I now have a 200GB partition for use with Windows 7.

Absolutely. During XP setup, you have an option to choose where to install the OS. Just choose to delete your existing partition, follow the instructions, and then create a partition in the empty space and install XP there. Please note that this will delete all of your files and settings unless you have them saved at a different place such as an external hard drive or another partition.

AnswerPut in your Windows XP CD and boot the system to start the installation. The OS will search for an existing copy, when it finds it, delete the partition. (please make sure you have all the info off the drive before doing this). Then create a new partition. Change the size to allow maybe 1GB worth of space (such as a 40GB drive, use only 38GB and leave 2GB free, otherwise it will reuse the flags and not do a proper install. Now just complete the XP installation.
You can partition your hard drive and install Windows Server onto the partitioned space. You then can boot up from either Windows 7 or Windows Server.
Use your Ubuntu CD. Find a program called "GParted" or "Gnome Partition Editor". Click on your XP partition and click "Resize" and make it smaller. Then, do the same with your Ubuntu partition, and drag it until it fills the space left by XP.
