Stupid Question
 

I'm running XP and my HD is partitioned into C: and D: I have files on both partitions. C: is full, but D: has plenty of space. Is there a way to reallocate say 5 gigs from D: to C: without the risk of loosing files from either partition?

Any help would be great! (except format C:)

yes when you click "my computer are both drives viewable?

If you just do the copy paste thing. If not then burn onto a cd and transfer it that way

Yes software like Partition Magic can do that for you.

Hey Juicy - I'm not wanting to actually move any files. I want to take 5 gigs of free space from D: and reallocate that free drive space on C:

Anyone?

Oh ok , hmmmmmm I got no clue then

Doesn't XP have a utility to accomplish this?

Hmm after thinking about it you might have to resize the partitions or something like that but honestly i am clueless but it might cause some data loss if you arent 100 percent sure of what to do.

use Partition Magic

Charlie give me afew min ill go grab an XP book and see if it can be done with XP's utilities
