    Hi.

    I've just reinstalled vista after using ubuntu for a while. I used to have two partitions, but i've ended up with four.

    Problem is i can't resize either one of them. I would like to end up with one partition if possible. I've tried partition magic but cant figureout what to do.

    Can someone please help me???

    Vista sometimes has a sort of a lock on the HD and it can only allow you to resize and get a few GB.

    However, you might want to try to boot from a live cd of ubuntu and use Gparted. It has a GUI and its as easy as clicking your way to a partition of your choice...

    Tried PPM but it did't work, so I used a boot cd of win7 instead and formated all drives and now I have on HDD.

    But thanks for all advises:)
