You can right-click F: and choose Extend volume if you just want the space back. Other than that, try a LIveCD of gParted. Move the other 2 partitions down and create the new one at the end of the drive.

Windows is quite foolproof with it's partitions but it's suggesting you've got 4 primary partitions so won't allow more; and probably insists on it being after all primary partitions, so using gParted will allow you to create a 5th as an extended volume.

If you're using GRUB to dual-boot it should still boot afterwards as partitions should still have the same numbering/UUID.
