Hi, IM really sorry if this question is stupid but IM really new at this.
Whenever I try to make a new partition with LINUX RedHat 6.2 under disk
druid, it says the current partition is using all the room. that would be my
Windows partition, IM trying to get both working one the same HD. Windows
says its using "100%" of the space. If I delete that partition am I deleting
my Windows? could I delete my Windows partition and add a new one with
alittle less MB's so I could add other partitions without loosing my
windows? In disk druid 6.2 it says I can't edit the MB amounts unless I
delete it. Thanks ANY info will be appreciated greatly.

You need to run a program like Partition Magic and resize your Windows
partition reducing it so that you'll have room to create a Linux native and
a linux swap partitions.
