Drive Partitions

[Guest]

Hi, I hope you are having a great day

I am trying to install W2K over a NT4 server without reformatting the hard drives (two physical drives, 4 logical drives). On the where to install, I deleted one of the partitions in hopes the space would transfer to my C drive which is too small. Well that didn't work and after W2K is installed, the drive just vanished.

Can someone tell me how to get the space that was on this drive onto the C drive? If this is not possible, will I have to reformat the drive to make C drive larger? Currently C is too small to hold the programs I need to install and some of them have to be on the C drive. If I do have to reformat C drive prior to reinstalling W2K, are there any special parameters I need to use? For example, Format C: /s /u

Thanks in advance and have a great day.

You need a partition manager such as Acronis PartitionExpert or PowerQuest
PartitionMagic. They will resize and merge your partitions on the fly.
