Disk Management Window

Thansk to all. I now have a headache. Goodnight.

Without a picture of disk management we cannot help you. There are too many variables and we don't want to brick your system. The info you gave up to now does not really help.

But if you want to take chances, let us know. It's your responsibility then.

1. It is good we looked because that so-called recovery partition is your active boot partition containing the bootmgr. You first have to move the bootmgr to C, else your system becomes unbootable.

Apart from the bootmgr, this partition seems to be completely empty. Is that correct. Open it and have a look.

2. Once you moved the bootmgr, you will have to delete that partition and volume to gain unallocated space. For that it is best to use the bootable CD of Partition Wizard (the .iso is in the last item on the website). Burn that to CD and boot with that CD.

4. Then you download the Macrium recovery .iso from my Skydrive. Burn that also to CD to have it handy in case something happens during the next step. You can also use that CD to make the image. Then you don't have to install Macrium.

How do you know it has the boot manager?

Regarding your #3 I have a HDD cloned of my SSD and I have recovery disks also. Is that enough?

Easy BCD is not free. Any free software out there?

The partition I want to merge into my c drive partition is marked: Active, Recovery Partition.

My c drive partition shows the boot mgr there, I think: Boot, Crash Dump, Primary Partition.
