dual boot question
I have an hp laptop with 2 hard drives in it. Drive 0 had windows vista on it. I decided to try windows 7, so I put it on drive 1. The laptop dual boots. Windows 7 works perfectly and I want to get rid of vista. Looking at the drives in Disk Management I see the following:
Disk 0: (Vista)
Healthy (System, Active, Primary Partition)
Disk 1: (W 7)
Healthy (Boot, Page File, Crash Dump, Primary Partition)
I was messing around and unintentionally marked disk 1 as active.
What I want to do is to wipe disk 0 completely and just use it as data storage. Disk Management won't let me format the drive though. How can I accomplish this. Did I screw anything up by marking disk 1 as active?
