Sorry but I can not understand.

- Partition name: Win03R2
- Drive letter: D
- Primary or logical: Primary (NTFS)
- Active or not active: Active, System
- What it contains : Windows 2003 R2 Operating Sistem

To clarify your question you should post the following information for each
drive on your primary master disk:
- Partition name
- Drive letter
- Primary or logical
- Active or not active
- What it contains (2003 Server, X65 Server, data)

The partition I want to clear is that the operating system no longer in
use
(2003r2). This leads to what I say?

Hi to all.

Let me ask you, how do I delete the system partition in Windows 2008.

Abstract:

Currently the system is configured to dual boot (2003R2 x86 and 2008
x64)
and the partition that I would like to delete it, logically, that of
2003R2.

Unfortunately not by Disk Management allows me anything elimination.

How can I resolve this promblema?

Thank you all for your help.

Deleting the system partition is likely to have the following
consequences:
- Your server will no longer be bootable off the hard disk.
- If you get it to boot off a floppy disk then your system drive letter
might change, which will cripple your x64 installation.

Is this what you want?
