Can I increase the size of my D drive so that I may
download updates, etc.? How can I do this? I have just
installed xp pro on my computer.
 
The only way you can create, delete, resize or merge existing partitions,
and not harm your existing Windows installation, is to purchase and use
a third-party partitioning program such as Partition Magic 8.

The alternative is to perform a "clean install" of Windows XP:
