is there anyway to make my bootcamp partion bigger without having to reinstall my operating system and all my programs. when i first made the partion i thought i would only need 5 gigs now i need more but dont want to redo everything.

If you have an external or network drive - could maybe do a backup and restore of XP after you have resized the partition. Have not personally tried this on a Mac.
Am not aware of any apps like Acronis that can handle resizing of NTFS, FAT32 and HFS.
