Removing Windows Vista from Dual Boot with Windows 7
Hello all,
Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction here....
I've got a dual boot system at the moment - screenshot attached of my Disk Management screen if that helps.
I would like to remove the Vista OS and reclaim the space now that I've transferred everything over to 7 and have a backup.
I've deleted the Vista Boot entry in msconfig's Boot section, and have looked at these posts on this forum but don't seem to be getting anywhere -
Dual booting vista and windows 7, want to remove vista all together
MBR - Restore Windows 7 Master Boot Record
As you can see from my screenshot - E: is the old, 32bit Vista partition (system active, primary partition). C: is the new, 64bit Windows 7 partition.
I'd like to remove E, and expand C, but I don't have the option to format E: when I right click.
If anyone has any tips or can point me in the right direction, it would be most appreciated. Have downloaded EasyBCD 1.7.2, although from their website I don't see Windows 7 as being supported
Thanks in advance,
Darren.
