Re: Disk Management - Delete and Extend

Hello There,

I could use some help please.

I show the following.

1. Primary Partition 9.7mb

2. Vista OS C 149.09mb

3. Data D 139.28mb - says Logical Drive - not used.

Can I delete the D partition, then increase the C to 288.37mb??

Your help would be appreciated,

Thanks,

Gezza.

Re: Disk Management - Delete and Extend

Gezza,

For a logical partition, you would need to right click on the D: partition and click Delete Volume, then right click on it again and click on Delete Partition. Afterwards, it will be a unallocated partition where you can use STEP TWO to extend C: into all of D: .
