Got a problem with Extending Drive C, in machine there is only one HDD drive, Partitions:
C: 15 GB free: space 0 (yea my Windows 7 volume reached 100% use causing application to crash)
E: 208 GB free: 50 GB
Unallocated: 75 GB
Total: 298 GB (some space is missing and i dont know why) Free: 50 GB
Win 7 ulti disk managment tool can't extend any volume.
EaseUS partition master can't extend any volume.
using method with CMD(as administrator) using "DISKPART" from post: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/23243-63-extend-partition gives me error: "There is not eught usable free space on specified disk(s) to extend the volume."
I'm cornered, please help.

Hi there assamite,

Just keep in mind that it is always a good idea to back up the most important data stored on the drive when dealing with partitions.
As even third party tools don't work, then I guess you just need to back up what is stored on E: -> delete it -> extend C: -> create a new partition D: (let's say) with the remaining storage space.

Cheers,

I can't extend any partition, the space on disk is shown like this: [C][Unallocated][E] (I honestly got no idea why second partition isn't "D" but it got no meaning)
