Something like the gparted Live CD would work. Basically, shrink the ntfs partition, make a new partition, and manually copy the files you want. The Ubuntu Live CD, and maybe others also have gparted installed.

Depends what D is and if it has enough space, but if it's not going to be affected (read: wiped out) by the install of 7, go for it.

If I were you, I would bring an external hardisk and copy all my files to it, and completely format the HD and remove the partitions. Then create 2 partitions, one is "C" which will hold the windows files and the other one is "D" which will hold your files and documents.

The Windows 7 theme? Both NVidia and ATI have Windows 7-approved drivers I recommend installing (along with other system drivers).
