If you delete one partition the other will not change it's size.

you need to delete all exisitng partitions are create a new 20GB
partition which uses the whole disk.

I think you should create a logical disk too,not only a extension patition.

.
if you have a extra hard drive when you connect it after

booting up you can use disk managment to fdisk and format
very quickly and it will be all on 1 partition .go to
control panel.administrative tools.computer
management.then disk management .it has a really good
fdisk and format.
