    Partitioning software can not work from Windows, this would destroy the system as soon as it started.

    do no longer even attempt that! Use W7's Disk administration device, stunning-click your pc Icon, and choose "shelter", then elect Disk administration.. Then, stunning-click onpersistent C:, and use the cut back returned Partition device to cut back returned the C: ability to make room for XP ( 20 GB, <>). Then, installation XP. This destroys W7's Boot Loader. jointly as W7 disappears, and it will, as quickly as you re-boot, yet, W7 maintains to be there. Use the loose EasyBCD to make certain a working twin-Boot demonstrate demonstrate screen showing XP and W7:
