Good morning,
I've got a 20gb harddrive setup with dual boot. The main OS is WinXP
Pro SP2, and the other is Linux (needed for school). The folks at the
university set up the dual boot for me, and now I no longer need the
Linux, and need the space back. the folks at the university told me I
could use a free Partician Majic clone program called QTParted to
simply delete the Linux and make the space visible to Windows as an
extended partition, but I couldn't seem to make that program work for
me (kept getting an error message telling me there were an invalid
number of sectors).
So, how do I go about removing that partition (if that is what it is)
and get that space back? Ideally, I'd like to recombine that space
with the C drive (WinXP drive), but if that's not possible, then an
extended partition would be fine too - I can just keep me data on that
drive.
Thanks for any advice.
