Hello Bill,

The following article will show you how to extend a partition in Windows
2000:
308209 HOW TO: Use Disk Management to Manage Basic and Dynamic Disks in
Windows
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=308209

Note:
- You cannot delete the system partition, boot partition, or a partition
that contains the active paging (swap) file.

There are some 3rd party solutions to this out there. I would recomend a
complete backup before attempting to use them.

We also offer another utility that you might be interested in called
diskpart:

Hope this helps,
