I tried to increase the size of my C drive by deleting the D drive partition. The D drive was deleted but the C drive size appears the same. How can I now increase the size of the C drive to fully occupy the space that the D drive previously took up. I would like to end up with one large C drive and no partition.
I have 160GB hard disk in which I have Windows XP installed in C drive(25GB). My E: drive is another primary partition(35GB). Rest of the partitions are made extended, in which F: (40GB), I40GB) are logical drives. The balance 20GB is a free space under the extended partition in which no logical drive is made. My system has become slow, because the system drive C: has very low amount free space available. So I thought of getting above 20GB free space to C: so that it would be 45GB overall. How can I expand C: drive? I have partition magic installed on my PC.
I have two partitions, Drive C and Drive D. My drive C is full but I have alot of memory on D. Can I increase the size of C by allocating the memory from D without formating my computer?

Last night I reformatted my laptop with my XP disk. it was just that time to clean out the hard drive something that I've done many times. But some weird things happened.1- It never asked me to type in my XP Key 2- when it finally installed some things seemed to be overlooked. Like the drivers. When windows restarted and came up normally the screen was set to 640x480 at 16 bit and wont let me make it larger. I went into the adv tab to see if i could update the driver but the properties button under the monitor type was grayed out. This along with other hardwares on my computer never installed. I tried the recovery cd after that to install the drivers but nothing helped. It seems like the plug-play never was activated.
I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this but I was told to increase my pagefile size to 1.5GB because I was having problems with the game Sacred locking up whenever I exported a character from bronze to silver mode.

How do I increase the size of the minimize, resize and close icons without also increasing the size of the icons on the task bar? I can go into Advanced Settings Properties in the Screen Settings and increase the size of the Active Title Bar, but that also increases the size of the icons in the task bar. Take a look at the pics below. The first shows the Active Title Bar smaller and then increased in size in the second

Is there a way to increase a partation on d: drive ?Now my c: drive are out of space.. so was thinking to move some hdd space from d: drive to c: drive
My wife is actually the computer whiz in the family, but she's out of town and I could use some help. We are running Win. XP. Our C drive is full and I was wondering if there's some way to extend the file size. There's not enough room to defrag (15% needed?). I've deleted some apps, but it's not enough. Mail, everything is affected.
Under my computer, I have two drives, C and D (empty). I have never intentionally partitioned my hard drive into the two drives, and have thought nothing of it until recently when I realised I have only 1GB of space left of the 45GB on the C drive.I was just wondering if there is an easy way of recombining these two drives so that I can have just one big drive back. I have heard that commercial products such as partition magic do the job, but I can't see much point in paying 70 for some software that will only get used once.
XP home edition re-installed, it gave the hard drive three partitions, C, D, and E. C drive has 9.75GB the other two have over 60 GB. I need to put more back to C drive.
1st post here and I hope someone has answers. THis is new to me. Ihave a 200gb HD. I have it partitioned into 5 partitions. Onepartition for my C: OS, D: Software, E: Games, F: Storage, G:Graveyard. Well I do this so if anything happens to my OS, I canreinstall and all my other info is safe. After the reinstall of myOS, everything was perfect, I had some issues with my G drive andaccess denied but I managed to take ownership. Well I installed someupdates etc last night and did some restarts without any issues. Idecided to do a disk check on G upon next boot up. Well I just bootedup this morning and only my C drive exists now, All my software whichis installed on my D drive is now inaccessable as well as all theothers. I went to Computer Management and it shows the rest of mypartition as 175gb of FREE SPACE?

i'm running xp proffesional sp2 i'm wanting to know how i can merge my 20gb system drive back into to one. it is currently split into two called: local_disc C - 11.2gb system_sav E - 7.69gb (this drive partition is blank and has been formated) i would like to merge these two partitions into one.
I have two partitions set up on my usb thumb drive. On the first partition it is a version of Linux (Slax) that I use for emergency boots the fs is Fat16. On the second, I have a standard Fat32 filesystem. But, when I plug in the drive while in windows, only the first partition shows up. I have made both the partitions bootable.

I don't want it anymore. PC's 200 gigs, now it's divided into D:5.32 fat32 c:181.07 ntfs g: 7.00 fat, and also an unallocated 159.97 gigs All these fall under Disk 0: Basic 346.28GB online doesn't make any sense.
Found some very useful info on here so decided to sign up and post a recent problem i encountered with an external hard drive. the hard drive has a capacity of 80GB and came from another pc. there was a 25/55 partition already on it from the old pc. i tried to delete the partition that was 25gb. now i can't find that 25gb at all. when i plug it in to the usb slot i can only see the 55gb partition it used to appear as 2 hard drives in my computer and nothing else. when i use disc management to format it i only see 55gb.
