The easy way. Is to get 'Acronis True Image' or a freeware equivalent. With Acronis you disconect all but 1 removable then use Acronis to back up 'C' drive. Then boot up using Acronis CD and restore 'C' on the 'C-H' HD telling it to use the entire HD.

There is a free version of Partition Magic 7 available is is not supposed to work on large drives but it works on my 160Gb drive. With Partition Magic drives can be resized, amalgamated, created or deleted.

Good thinking Ned.
Just use Partition Magic to change drive letters. But. Also make sure that you set you prime drives right. And. Do a backup anyway. Just in case. |

I have downloaded this but I haven't had occasion to use it yet. It seems similar to Partition Magic (but cheaper).......

Well, so far. In freeware partition managers the best one for me has been EASUS. If I didn't already own a shop bought partition Magic v8 I think I would use EASUS.
