How to combine seperate volumes on same SSD after uninstall of Ubuntu? So I just uninstalled Ubuntu, and had a whole big problem with starting up my computer(don't even get me started), and now I'm here, my final problem. So as you can see by the image, my ssd is split up into multiple volumes. I want to know how to combine my main, Windows 7 volume, with my previously Ubuntu volume. At this point it is free space and I have no idea, nor could I find out how to do what I need. I am hoping someone here has a clue about this. Any suggestions? | My System Specs |

Click Delete Partition to delete the extended Logical partition Free Space and make it Primary Unallocated Space.
Then extend C into the space: Partition or Volume - Extend | My System Specs | | |

When I try to delete partition it says there is not enough space to do so. Makes no sense to me. Any more suggestions? | My System Specs | | OS MS Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit SP1 CPU Intel® Core™ i3-380M Processor (3M Cache, 2.53 GHz) Motherboard Acer Aspire 5733 (CPU) Memory 4GB DDR3 Graphics Card Intel HD Graphics Screen Resolution 1366x768 Mouse Corsair's Vengeance M90 Hard Drives 63GB Kingston KINGSTON SV100S264G ATA Device (SATA) Internet Speed 92.1 Mb/s d/l, 65.42 Mb/s u/l, 13ms Ping |

Could be. You have less than 10% free space on C. It may even need 15%. Temporarily backup/remove some stuff from C and try again. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number HP, Dell, Gateway, Toshiba - 4 laptops and 2 desktops OS Vista, Windows7, Mint Mate, Zorin, Windows 8 CPU from 1.6GHz Duo to i7 Monitor(s) Displays 2x HP w2207 Keyboard with trackball - no mices Mouse Trackball mice Hard Drives 5x HDD, 7x SSD, 12x Externals Internet Speed DSL 6000 |

Okay, sounds like a good idea. I deleted some stuff, freed up more space. I now have 17% available, and it still won't work.

Hi,
Do you get the same error if you attempt to remove the partition in Partion Wizard? Link to software in Greg's original post here: Laptop won't start up after deleting Ubuntu partition
