Windows 7: 2 Windows 7 Installations on 2 partitions, can't delete old one.

Okay, I've got C: as a Primary Partition now and I've got the boot over onto it. W: is still listed as System in Disk Management, but in Partition Wizard it's listed as boot still.

What is called system in Windows 7 is called boot in partition wizard.

Your system still boots from W! Do the easybcd trick to move boot files to C. Post screenshot afterwards

If you want to keep C then run Startup Repair - Run 3 Separate Times so that the System boot files are brought onboard, and WinRe is also written to the F8 Boot tools menu which won't happen with EasyBCD or Commands.

I would still resize E from the left to Move C there if you don't reinstall: How to Move/Resize Partition with partition manager? Partition Wizard Move/Resize Partition Video Help..

Then delete the old C and W and resize E to the right.

I misread your screenshot C is already active. You simple didn't boot yet. So reboot

Just get done what's needed for now and after make backups and delete the "old" W_7 and you can take care of whatever is needed; there's always this option for future storage, have a look at Method One of this one.

Partition / Extended : Logical Drives

Embarrassing. It's been a long day! Everything looks good now so it's safe to delete W:?

@Greg: correct me if I'm wrong please. Easybcd move bootmanager to C does:

• copy bootmgr file to C:\
• copy bcd store to C:\BOOT
• adjusts some bcd entries. for example osdevice partition=boot (instead of C). Don't know why. But works of course.
• marks partition C active.

I did it 3 times before and it didn't touch the recovery entries in bcd store.

yes you can delet W now in "disk management" or partition wizard.
You can also extend C in one of both tools afterwards. But as greg already said.. C will be a little bit small

Can you still boot to Advanced Boot Options after deleting W drive? Does it list "repair your computer", and does that option work?

I'll check it out right now.

Nope. I was not able to get into it.
