Vista partitioning issue.

In the Windows Vista partitioner, I am running into a couple of problems.

1) Shouldn't the C:\ drive be showing up as the first partition on my
system, as it is the system boot and primary partition (not to mention C
comes before D)?

2) Once partition D:\ is deleted, and is shown as unallocated space, I
see no option on the C:\ partition to expand the partition into the
unallocated space that I just made available to it.


All answers appreciated in advance.

Get yourself a third party partitioner like Gparted live CD.

Re: Vista partitioning issue.

Sorry for the cut off.

Continuation:

I've been wondering why the partitioner still doesn't work as well as it
did on XP. Has Microsoft not figured this error out yet?
