Resize Partitions:
1. Boot from Disk Director 10 CD (bootable media disk created with build 2239). Run Manual Mode.
2. Decrease size of D: to create unallocated space between C: and D: by grabbing left side of D: and sliding it to the right.
3. Commit changes and reboot.
4. Increase the size of C: by grabbing right side of C: and sliding it right to fill space between C: and D:.
5. Commit changes and reboot.
6. After Step 5 I will still have two partitions, a much larger C: and a much smaller D:. No change to recovery partition.
Move Files from D: to C:
1. Restart PC normally in Windows XP.
2. Move all files from D: to C: (no program files, mostly photo's, MP3's, etc.).
3. Make a second image back up for safety.
Delete D: and Resize C:
1. Boot from Disk Director 10 CD. Manual Mode.
2. Delete D:.
3. Commit changes and reboot.
4. Increase the size of C: to fill all unallocated space.
5. Commit changes and reboot.
6. After Step 5 I will have C: drive only.
