I am assuming completely, but here is what I think your partition hard drive looks like.
LL >> swap >> Windows >> unallocated space.
If this is the setup you can try to delete the swap and move Windows down to a newly formatted ntfs that you have for the unallocated space. This is going to be tricky as you may loose all your windows info. The swap can be recreated after the move of the windows and you will have to edit the fstab to put in the new name of it. Basically it would be easier to format the unallocated space and use it for the LL4 install, just make sure you make a new partition for it to be seen to be installed to. If this is similar to your harddrive, from personal experience I would not move windows as I have lost stuff for people I have tried to do this for. For me cloning the drive saved my behind more than once. If you wish to redo everything I would suggest partitioning the hard drive and putting windows first then installing the Linux distros.
