| RE: Urgent Disk Partition Problem - Need to remove a partition. Does the other drive/partition have a drive letter like "E" or "F"?
Copy all the files to your C drive or a CD, if possible. Then you
can go to: Start>Run>type DISKMGMT.MSC and press OK
There you can delete the partition or whatever you want to do.
Do not delete Disk 0 which is the Primary partition. You should
see your C drive and other drives/partitions and your CD-Rom, etc.
