I've looked over the forums but haven't found anything that precisely answers
my question.
I'm running XP Pro, and I've got a hard drive that's partitioned into 4
partitions. I want to merge two of the partitions. I've already backed up
the data on both (neither of the partitions is a boot or system partition).
Using disk manager, can I merge the two partitions? I've read about it not
being possible without it being "destuctive," but since I've backed up both
partitions, I don't care about loosing data on either partition. Have I
properly understood "destructive" in this context, or could using disk
manager to do this physically wreck the drive?
If it's possible, could somebdy give me the steps I need to take to do it?
I know there is partition magic, but I will probably be only doing this once,
so I would like to avoid paying for a program I'll probably never use again.
Thanks!
