I have deleted a partition on my pc and am now trying to figure out how
to transfer the, (what use to be my D drive,) extra "free space" to my C
drive. How do I do this?

Thanks in advance,

You cannot do this in XP.
You would have to use a third part application such as Partition Magic.

Hi,

To resize an existing partition without losing data, you need a third party
partitioning program. The drive tools in Windows cannot do this for you. The
following is a list of available programs that can do this for you:

Boot Managers and Partitioning programs:

BootIT NG www.terabyteunlimited.com
Partition Magic www.powerquest.com/partitionmagic
Partition Commander http://www.v-com.com/product/pc_ind.html
Ranish Partition Manager http://www.ranish.com/part/

The last one I believe is still free.

You need some partitioning software such as Partition
