At the moment my computer is split into two separate Partitions, a C Drive Which is 48gb and A D Drive which is 319gb (There about). When opening up disk management it shows that there is a free space of 97gb that is not allocated for use at the moment. What I would like to know is that is there anyway I can make all drives and space including the Free Space (Which Disk Management won't let me extend onto the D Drive or C Drive) into just one C Drive.
Thanks
Tane

You could try downloading the free version of the Paragon Partition Manager and see if it will allow you to do what you want. The specialist partition managers usually have more flexibility than the built in partition management capability in Windows.
You should have no problem removing D and it's extended partition (if it is contained in one) then you should be able to expand C to occupy the whole volume.
what is on the D drive? You would need to clear everything from right to left as that is the way windows works AFAIK. Also the green free space should have an option to clear simple volume(?) I think. if you want to incorporate it into C: it should read unallocated like the small section at the far right of the picture. If you can get the 97gb section to read unallocated, you should be able to right click the C drive and select expand and it will take up the section. Unless there is something system necessary on the d drive, you should be able to delete it the same way. Clear drive, clear simple volume, expand C:

If you Have an external hard drive, Back up all the files you want, boot up your windows disc, wipe everything, and just clear everything(remove the current partitions, the windows 7 disc has a much more modern GUI, so It should be easy to find) , then make them into the one partition. I had to use My wndows disc to make my computer recognise my replacement Drive, they like to not format Drives replaced via warranty, don't they...
