It is not too hard , format drive D to NTFS and create in the last 112gb partiton and format , make sure they are assigned a drive letter

hey thanks for the reply

-should i change drive D to logical or leave it primary? or it doesnt matter?

- and if i want the drive letter to be E and the cd/dvd is already E , what can i do in that case??

The first method, as you'll be able to view and follow the instructions from your desktop.

 

[whs]

Use the Windows Disk Management. Delete D and start anew in that total freespace. It will be the easiest.

hey guys thanks alot i solved the problem

i got new partitions C , D , G

and everything is ok now

 

[boywondas]

sorry to bother you again guys

but i found out that drive G is logical , should i change it to primary or leave it like that??

 

[ignatzatsonic]

Logical is OK.

You can only have three primary partitions before it will offer your a Logical for your fourth. You should accept it since you can add as many sub-partitions as you want to the Logical one. A fourth primary would require you to convert it to Logical before adding any more.
