    Hi,

    In windows disk management I have 6 volumes as defined by Dell.

    I deleted the last partition and made it into a primary partition (8gb), great.

    I am now left with a volume called "Healthy (Recovery Partition) which is also 8gb.

    DM will not allow any changes to the Recovery Partition, but I want to delete it and get at the 8gb.

    I am thinking that the 8gb is useless now anyway as I deleted the other 8gb volume which forms parts of the recovery partition.

    Thanks,
    Tee
