I have three partitions:
Partition 1: Windows 7 Operating System (the famous C:
) 25 GB.
Partition 2: Personal Files (98 GB)
Partition 3: Ubuntu Linux (25 GB)
Can I grab some space out of the Partition 2 & append into Partition 1 without re-installing Windows?

Yes. You can "grab" any amount of empty space from a contiguous partition and add it to the respective adjacent partition. Post a screenshot of windows disk mgmt.

I didn't mention a 100 MB partition labeled "System Reserved" in my previous post. This partition was created when I installed from my OEM's copy.
There's going to be a problem here. Since that 98GB partition is a logical partition inside an extended partition. Re-sizing it will only provide space in the extended region. In short you can't add the spaced out portion to your C drive. (At least with the built-in Disk management tool)
I don't know if 3rd party tools cn help you.

Have installed Acronis before , but few years ago. Would that work?
Haven't used Acronis before, so can't comment.
Anyway you can try out this method - Moving Space Between Partitions. It is using gpart, so you can use Ubuntu for that.
Though, I strongly advice you to take a backup of important files.
Yes. But what's that 25GB partition between C: and D: ? It's completely empty.
That's the partition in which Ubuntu is installed, I guess.
Not possible, how can it be fully empty ?
Windows doesn't natively support ext3, ext4 etc. So, that anomaly.
Yeah, I forgot that. Let him confirm.

I have checked it right now. It is the Ubuntu partition. Don't know why it's showing as empty because I already have many files stored inside it including movies.
Ok. That's why its showing empty.

Switched back to 7 from 8. Feels like heaven. Now everything is in its proper place. <3

are we free to troubleshoot here :
if not then indicate me to delete this.
Windows was temporarily unable to read your hard disk drive
the PC restarts following a BSOD and then this error (above mentioned) is displayed in the Action Centre..
the HDD i use is in my siggy, just 6 -7 months old..

^ Did you install or made changes to your computer before this error?
Run chkdsk to see if there's any error. Also, when you get the BSOD , do note down the error (hexadecimal number as well as the Mnemonic) & post here along with your computer information.
