I bought a new HP laptop over the weekend. The hard drive is
partitioned into 3 drives. The OS (99 G NTFS), the recovery
(HP_Recovery - 12 G FAT) and a hidden partition (1 G). I created
recovery DVDs and would not like to reclaim the space that the recovery
partion is residing on and merge it with the primary partition. Is
this something that I need partition magic for and will it merge the
partions without losing the data on the primary partition? Or is there
another utility that I can use to do this without having to purchase an
expensive program that I will in all likelihood only use once? Or
another workaround, perhaps creating an image of the drive?
TIA!
