I managed to create some 10GB of free disk space by shrinking my D:\ drive.
Now I want to extend the Primary Partition (the C:\drive).

But when go to the Disk management panel, and I try to right click the C:\ drive and
select Extend Volume the "Extend Volume" option is grayed out.

Any ideas on an easy way to do this?
I can't install any new software until I figure this out.

Pretty much, Windows 7 is what Vista should have been.

TWD Asks if you can extend the C: Drive. i am not sure if you can actually do that through the disk management? If you cant you may want to look at getting a 3rd party partioning software like Partition magic to help you with it.

Is that possible to change the partition sizes in XP without formatting and data loss?
