hello everyone, i am looking for a lil help and possibly the best way to
undertake the project i am about to begin.
i have a genuine windows XP pro OS on a 5 year old desktop, the system is
running great, but i am running out of space on my C:\. (cleaned every thing
i possibly can of the drive) when i built my system 5 years ago i
partitioned my 120GIG HD into 4 partiton, personal preferance ) C:\=
10Gigs,(OS only) D:\=40Gigs, (programs only )E:\=40Gigs(music, Games ect
only), F:/=30Gigs, a while back i lost the F:\ so i no longer have access to
that partiton, now with the XP service pack 3 updates and other updates MS
desides it want my OS to update to i am now down to 1.5 Gigs on my C:\ . i
have back up / copied all may data and programs musics and other stuff to a
EXT HD so all my DATA is ok i was told that even if i delete my D, and E
partitons i cannot increase the size of my C:\ ? i do not want to buy a 3rd
party software to increase my C:\, if i cannot increase the C:\ size to
20Gigs i will have to delete all my partitions and create just one C:\ of
about 90Gigs, would / will that work ?? if not what wold be the best way to
proceed (without spending any $$$ ) i would appricate any solutions. thanks
in advance.
