Partitions After Win 7 Install
After a recent upgrade to windows 7, I found a new 11.2 GB partition on my hard drive, this partition had 10.6 GB of free space, after searching I found that the files contained in this partition were not necessary and so rather than have 11.2 GB of unusable space I attempted to delete the files and expand C into the free space, Windows disc manager was unable to do this as the option to expand C was not available. So using partition wizard I tried again (unfortunately without backing up first) The result was the lose of the OS and all data.
However this was no real problem as there was not a lot of stuff on there that was needed. So after yet another clean install of windows 7, I now have 11.2 GB of unallocated space on the hard drive which I would very much like to add to available space in C.
As you may be able to tell from my post I'm new to partitions and so please keep any help as simple as possible.
PS the hard disc size should be 320 GB, Partition C is 286 GB, there is 11.2 GB of unallocated free space so what has happened to the remaining 23 GB
