    Hi I have a Dell with 40 Gb HD
    partition 1 is 20Gb
    the remaining 20 Gb is not partitoned
    I want to reload Win2000 and set partition 1 to the full 40 Gb but I can not
    see how to do this in the setup. It will let me partition the remaining 20
    Gb as Drive D but I what I want to do is set the full 40 Gb as Drive C.

    Thanks
