I have a 20GB hard drive that still has 6GB of available space. The
drive currently has 2 partitions, one is 8GB (C drive) and the other is
4GB (E drive). I'm trying to figure out a way to add the 6GB to the 8GB
to make it a 14GB partition and leaving all the data intact. Which is
WinXP Home and other Windows applications and data. Possible? Any
recommendations?

Partition Magic can "merge" partitions and keep your data intact.

PM worked perfectly. There is an option to redistribute available free
space whether it was allocated or not. Now my pervious 8GB partition
is now 14.1GB. Just what I wanted. Amazing thing was it took all of 5
or so minutes to complete the operations. Thanks for the responses.
