My C: drive has about 300mb of space left out of 13 Gigs. My D: Drive has 24 Gig out of 92 Gigs. I have already deleted everything I dare to remove from C: based on information provided in a previous post - thanks for all the advice on that post.

Is it possible to reallocate space from my D: drive to my C: drive? If so, how would I do that?

There are other ways around this, but can be dangerous -

Safest method for anything you have the original discs for - remove the programs from your computer, reinstall them directly to D drive instead of C drive (default).

You have the space but your computer is a mess by the way programs have been allocated to your drives. I would have someone help you get it set up correctly by partitioning.

Good luck,
Jon

I appreciate the responses. Maybe I'll hang on as long as possible with what I have and look into something else in the future. This computer is already 7 years old.

He didn't say if it was two separate physical HDD's or not. If it is just one HDD with two partitions on it, then he can use EASEUS Partition Master. It is totally free, and works very well. Here is their website http://www.partition-tool.com/

It is only one HDD. I'll try out the previous post website. Thanks

I tried the Easeus Partition program...worked perfectly. I was able to move 10Gb from my D: to my C: without any problems. Super easy to use also. Thanks for the help.
