I tried this. I wanted to shrink drive D by 10GB and expand C by 10GB. After shrinking D my system created a 10GB space which is not assigned (it has a black line on top of the symbol as opposed to a blue one). But now I can not expand C (the “expand” is greyed out) nor can I use these 10GB in any other way. What can I do?

I am having a similar problem, I had a friend reinstall my vista os and everything, however when he set up my hard drives, instead of my recovery disk only being 10GB its 108GB. That’s half of my computer’s total storage that I can’t use at all. I tried shrinking and extending the volumes but it didn’t work, I tried downloading programs to assist me in doing this and I got an error saying there wasn’t enough memory to load the download, yet I have no problem downloading anything else. I tried using my D Drive as just a regular hard drive to store my movies and music videos on, but when I did that the computer made mirrored copies of the files on my C Drive, so when I deleted them off of my D Drive it also removed them from my C.

I want my 108GBs back so I can use it…any sggestions?!

Hi Jimmy, Partition Magic doesn’t support for Vista, the Extend System Partition Home Edition free can extend vista.
