Meh this is making me angry. How would I make 2 partions back into one? I have 2 38 gb partitions and I wanna take the one partition that has all my data on it and I wanna combine the two partitions together to make up the whoe 80gb hard drive. How would I go about doing this? Thanks for all the help!

Howdy:

You are going to need third-party software such as Partition manager.

Either that or backup all your data and use you XP cd to redo the entire hdd and re-install XP.
