unclaimed partition
I bought an Acer m3400 aspire desktop and the first thing I did was to put Win ultimate 64 on it.
Now I have an unallocated 15gb partition - can I reclaim this by merging it with either the C or D partition?

Actually excuse me, in your case d:\ is unallocated space so you would be extending the C:\ drive into the unallocated area of 15 gig if the 15 gig is to the right of the space

the unallocated partition has no drive letter.
it is first in the list (on the left) followed by C (acer) and D (data)
Extend is greyed out for both C and D drives

I right clicked the unallocated and chose dimple volume, it is now formatted NTFS and has a drive letter of L. Still don't see how to "give" it to C or D though

c:\ then d:\ to the left of it or contiguous..
To find out right click on [computer] and click [manage] then go to [disk manager] You can right click the partition you want to have gain the space and extend that space into the unallocated space.
