I cant seem to allocate more partition space to C drive
I am trying to allocate space to the C drive on the netbook I just bought. This netbook comes Windows 7 Starter edition as well as as a very annoying partition on the hard drive.
The hard drive on this netbook is divided into 2 different partitions. C and D.
I went into the administrative tools and disc management program where it shows the 3 partitions.
1 is partition C with 100GB of space and the system stuff in it.
Then there is a 15GB healthy primary partition sitting there in the middle for some reason.
Then the Disc D with 117.86 GB of space completely empty.
What I tried to do was to shrink disc D into like 10GB and leave 107 GB of unallocated space. Then I right clicked on disc C and the option for "extend volume...was not letting me extend the damn volume -_-" however when I did the same thing on disc D Extend volume it let me re- put the 107GB I made into unallocated space.
Similarly if i split disc C and make some of it by shrinking volume unallocated space I can re attach it but only to disc C.....how do I add all of the space in Disc D to disc C so I can just have 1 HDD...or better yet, how do I simply make Disc D 10GB and the rest of the space placed on disc C....also what is the purpose of a 15GB "Healthy primary partition..if I already have all the windows data on disc C.. however when I open the my computer screen, I only have it showing Disc C and disc D...
I hope I made sense about my problem. I wanted to put up pictures to make it easier to understand but I dont know how to add pictures to this post on this forum from my netbook.
hope you guys can help me plz ^_^
