ok so i have my C drive but i want to get rid of it and move all of its space to my new main partition J drive but i cant because c is my system boot drive so how do i change it

[Agust1337]

One way is go install new operating system on the J drive then format the C drive, and then go merging it in with Disk Manager. Or you can use Linux as a boot up without installing, but I am no expert in Linux so I can't help you much there :?

It would be easier to boot from a different drive and repartition that way. There is a free piece of software called gparted that you can use to resize partitions.
Just remember to back up any important data first.

i already have my j drive and i do all my stuff on it and i have windows 7 on it already however i installed win8 on my c drive

now running on win7 i want to WIPE the win8 partition and put it all on my win8 partition

[mandai]

Can you give a list containing both the physical and logical drives in your system?

[Bogoh67]

c and j

[mandai]

Are both of those partitions on the same device?

[Bogoh67]

yes
c is physical
j is logical

[mandai]

In Disk Management, are those partitions also on the same device?

[Bogoh67]

yes
