Why do I have two local disks on one hard drive!?
I recently bought a Dell E310. I re-installed Windows XP Home because I HATE all the crap they put on. Now, I was in the set-up menu and there were 2 partitions! I choose the one with the biggest storage (56 Gb) and installed. Problem was that the computer wouldn't boot the operating system! Then I installed it on the other that only had 18 Gb. It finally booted, but now I have 2 local disks! One has Windows installed the other is just free space! Why did it split up like that? It is a Serial ATA drive if that helps. I just want to combine the two or use the bigger storage space and have only ONE local disk.
There is a software called Partition Magic, You can use this software to add or remove the partitions, but before you start playing around with this software, I would suggest that you take a data backup as playing with partitions can be very risky.
