    Hi Experts,
    I have a Acer 1414WLCI, I am not a laptop guru, bought this in 2005, has a 60GB HD which I found out today that is partitoned into 30 and 30, I had been getting messages about low on disk space, so now, my question is:

    1. Can I remove this partition and make this one 60GB HD( since the other 30GB HD is almost free)
    2. Is this a good idea? I am not sure if it is or not, but I tried doing it via partition magic, and once i rebooted for it to take place, it gave me error messages(encountered some problem on the disk) and ended up not doing it.
    3. In summary what is the best way to overcome this problem, do I have to re-image?

    Thanks in advance,
    Mohammad
