partitioning question
I have a Acer laptop and it has a C drive and a D drive (data). On the C
drive it has 53.1 GB and my D drive 88.1 GB. I want to move about 20GB to the C drive. How can I do that when it won't let me extend volume on Drive C. Debbie

How can I do that when it won't let me extend volume on Drive C. You have to first resize "D" to make it 20gigs smaller, leaving the space on the side closest to "C". Then you resize "C" to take up the available space.

partitioning question
You will likely need a 3rd party partitioning tool to do what you desire to
do. You shrink partition D: so that the unallocated space is made available adjacent to partition C:. Then you resize (grow) partition C: to encompass the available unallocated space. I do similar partition maintenance frequently by using Acronis Disk Director Suite. -- Richard Urban Microsoft MVP Windows Desktop Experience "Debbie Graham" wrote in message ...

... I tried that but the space available goes to the other side of D, no where near C Debbie Which is why it is best to use a 3rd party utility like Acronis Disk Director.. -- Mike Hall - MVP Windows Experience http://msmvps.com/blogs/mikehall/
