Big long story here, I'll start with my Laptop.
Asus S550CB
WIndows 8 64bit
8 GB RAM
24gb SSD
1TB Hard drive
Got a new laptop, windows 8 pre installed, upgraded to 8.1 preview, nothing worked, hated it, expired, had no windows 8.0 to restore to.
I looked up my laptop found it supported windows 7. (It didn't and i was wrong)
Was installing windows 7, at the start it couldnt use any drive because of GPT.
Used Gparted to Creat MS-DOS partition, destroyed all factory partitons.
WIndows 7 worked. no drivers tho of course. I was stuck.
Used Gparted to delete everything again
Installed windows 8 onto 24gb SSD.
I tried installing 56 updates, stopped halfway. I had 200mb left on SSD.
Before all this, I believe my ssd shared partitions or something with my 1tb hard drive. Only Windows 8, my 8gb ram page file and these updates.
With Gparted how can manually change it back so the hdd shares a partiton or two with my ssd?
Many Thanks,
James

(Don't want to send it to get factory image reloaded on it, I'm not sure if i voided it. Also don't really have money for a new bigger ssd)
