Hi Ernst,

To expand C: into that free space, it must be contiguous and at the end
of
C:, not the beginning or behind D:. In short, you should see in Disk
Manager
C:, free space, then D:. If not, then you will need to move or slide
the
volumes around to accomplish this. A volume can only be expanded into
free
space that is physically located immediately after it. This operation
cannot
be done with Vista's drive tools, they can only shrink or expand, you
need a
third party one like Acronis' Disk Manager or terabyteunlimited's
BootIT NG.

Hi experts
I have a Vista Ultimate laptop with drive C: 76GB NTFS basic for
programs,
drive D: 15GB NTFS basic for my data and 14GB not allocated. C: is
full
and I
would like to expand the size. The 14GB resulted from a reduction of
D: I
assumed it will be added automatically to C: But all wrong!!
How can I proceed to enlarge C:?
