| 786186 | 2009-06-27 03:07:00 | Hey how can I expand my primary partition in Windows Vista? Have a 500gb with 2 partitions 45 gb and 422 and I shrunk the 422 to 322 and now I want to give the extra 100gb to my C. |

| 786191 | 2009-06-28 06:00:00 | Yes, certainly, image the partitions . But Vista can do the job for you . The disk manager needs to slide the 100MB partition to the left, placing it on the right of the C: partition . Next step, expand the C: to include the 100MB . It does work - I have done it with my Vista Home Premium installation . |
