Can Partition Magic delete Windows parititions?

[Jack S.]

I used Windows to partition my primary master hard drive into 2 paritions (C and D).
Unfortunately the C partition is getting too small. Can Partition Magic delete the
Windows partition? If so, I can then use Partition Magic to set the partition and
resize it in the future if necessary.

Why would you want to delete the c: (Windows) partition? Partition Magic will
let you resize d: smaller and then resize c: larger....

Usual disclaimers.

It's been a while since I've used Partition Magic, but I believe you can do
it. Just make sure you backed up your partitions "just-in-case" something
goes wrong that Partition Magic isn't about to recover from.

You're right... I don't want to unless I had to. That's good news. I'll load it
up.
