Cozumel,

Thanks for the note.

I think when I originally loaded Window 2000, I had formatted the whole drive before partitioning using Window 98se set up floppy.

Thanks

JM

Diskpart > List Volume


Volume ### Ltr Label Fs Type Size
Volume 0 D CD-Rom 0B
Volume 1 C NTSF Partition 7844 MB
Status Info

Volume 1 Healthy System

Microsoft Diskpart Version 5.1.3553

Okay then, to continue from the above point:

Type Select Volume 1
This command selects the volume that you will be managing. To confirm it is selected you could type 'list volume' again and you should have a star or a cross or asterisk next to Volume 1 (your drive C NTFS)

If all is good then do this:
Type Extend size=8540
This will (hopefully) add a further 8540MB to your existing drive C 7844MB to give a tolal of 16384MB=16GB (1024MB=1GB)

List volume again to see if it has worked (fingers crossed)

edit: Sorry for the delay. I went out last night....

Hi Cozumel,

At last -

" Successfully extended the volume "



Followed your instructions as above using Diskpart.

It has taken me a while, as I had to sort out back up of my files to another computer using networking.

So Diskpart has worked .



Thanks for all your help.
