Adding space to partition C: from D: in Win 2K3

Hi,

I have a Windows 2K3 machine. I have installed the OS on C: partiiton which has 8 GB space and D: has 60GB space. I want to add the 60GB of D: to C; without rebuilding the host. How can I do that?

Thanks.

You can use a software call partition magic.

gunnervarma,

Go to Disk manager and look for the option to mount a drive and make the drive as a folder to drive C.

Cheers!

another option

Use a PARTED Live CD. This will run linux off your CD and the PARTED program should be able to do what you want while the W2K is not actually running.
