Get hold of a copy of Notron Ghost 2002, it does support dynamic disks. See below, | |

Sorted now i just copied all data back to the 2nd partition and spanned the 2nd disk to stripe it on the end of the second partition | |

quote: I have a 180Gb drive, partitioned as C (Windows, Programs & Swapspace: 25Gb); D (Games & Demos: 75Gb); E (Download, MP3s, My Docs, Digicam Pics: 72.5Gb). I also have a 120Gb drive, partitioned as F (Miscellaneous: 20Gb), G (Films: 50Gb), H (TV Stuff, other Misc stuff: 45Gb). Then there's a 56x-CD-ROM, which is I; the CD-RW which is J; and my camera's memory-card reader, which is K. Lots of drive-letters! So again, why do you need all of that space on C? :D | |

Seems you need to re-format the IIO partition of the D while the C runs sequential to the partition of the ESO, this will glow the two drives and you'll be able to run the D seperatly with the FDS now open | |

Ok this is the full story, i had one 120gb hdd in my machine partitioned up into C & D, i have since added another 120gb disk which has one partition (G) i have copied all my data from D onto G leaving C as the system and G with all my data, i have formatted the old D partition and want to reclaim this space to C | |

One quick question, but why not just leave it partitioned? It's safer that way......if you have to do a Windows format-and-reinstall if everything goes pear-shaped, you don't lose as much, because everything "important" would be on another partition. | |

If the old D drive is now showing as free space you should be able to grow the C drive to whatever size is avaliable? | |

ok i have one physical hdd that i have partitioned up into two partitions, c and d, formatted in NTFS and i have made both partitions dynamic. Now i have cleared all space off the D partition and want to merge this free space with the C partition but XP Disk Management cant do it and the D partition doesnt even show up in partition magic 8???????? |
