Right I fucked up a partition
I got a 120gb hard drive that was set up in 3 partitions.

C: Operation System
D: Media
E: Downloads in progress

I deleted E and thought that it would just add on to the C drive, obviously now I know that doesn't work, so I have 20gb floating on my disk that I can't use.

I wanted to know if there's a way I can latch that space onto my C or D without losing the data on that drive.

I know I can just re-create the E, but wanted to know if there's another option without having to re-install all over again

What program did you use to unpartition it? Usually, especially with programs that come with hard drives, there is an option to combine partitions or add empty space to another partition.

The only one I can think of right now is Partition Magic.

I don't THINK it's possible to merge partitions through Windows.

he's right, windows doesnt let you do it. You need partition magic, you should be able to download it from torrent sites.

Yep, just download Partition Magic from a site (katz.ws) should have it, just search for it. Then you can merge or what have you in Windows itself. If you need to repair a partition ever incase you accidently delete it, you should use Partition Table Doctor. Hope this help and good luck.
