I hope someone wud help me out here.. thanks
This will be a little complicated. The files in d: drive are probably read only hidden. These need to remain there due to the dual-boot. If you remove them windows 7 won't boot. You will have to transfer them to your c: drive. http://www.sevenforums.com/installation-setup/30939-removing-dual-boot.html http://www.pronetworks.org/forums/windows-boot-problems-f220.html
