Hey,
I haven't much experience with hard drives so I need some help. I just reinstalled windows (I have a WD 160GB SATA) and deleted a partition (drive D and hoped to clear drive C: by installing a fresh windows and selecting to delete all (I had spyware problems I wanted to clean up.)
Anyway, after the installation the only drive that shows up is C: (not D: because I deleted it) and I guess the space that was on D: is now just unpartitioned space.
Here's my question, how do i totally wipe C: (because theres still essentially everything from before I reinstalled windows and when I right click it to format, it says it cannot be done) and how do I get the unparitioned space into C: (I wouldn't like two drives.)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
