I agree that Partition Magic is the way to go here but PLEASE BACKUP BEFORE USING IT!! &nbsp;While it's a reliable tool, things do happen and an error in the repartitioning process can destroy your data beyond practical recovery.<br />

Hello everyone,<br />
<br />
I have a Presario 1277 Laptop that came with the drive space partitioned into two drives. Apparently the computer uses the second drive to backup information. <br />
<br />
Unfortuneatly this reduces my available drive space. <br />
<br />
Can someone please advise me how I can consolidate the two drives back into one (and hopefully turn off the backup feature).<br />
<br />
Many thanks.<br />
