1198730	2011-05-02 01:56:00	No I always use Gparted for this sort of thing	gary67 (56)
1198731	2011-05-02 02:28:00	C: is probably active system disks, meaning you cant extend while the system is running!	SolMiester (139)
1198732	2011-05-02 02:49:00	I use Partition Magic which allows resizing all partitions as far as I know, right now I have 9 partitions!	Brucem (8688)
1198733	2011-05-02 02:53:00	A free partition resizer tool here:- www.partition-tool.com HTH	Snorkbox (15764)

D can shrink and extend . I'll look into the utilities but I will make image before hand . . .	Nomad (952)
1198737	2011-05-02 04:16:00	weird .. can you post a screenshot if possible.	ronyville (10611)
1198738	2011-05-02 06:10:00	Screenshot . That other disk shown has to be deleted via linux . It's my laptop, so just 1x HDD . Was created on Vista recovery CDs then I re-put my Win7 image back on . .	Nomad (952)
