Sounded like a good idea at the time, but I previously had a dual boot set-up with XP loaded first and Vista second. (x64) for both
My Vista partition became full so I was ready to get rid of XP and try to combine both partitions so I would have more space for Vista. I thought the best way to do this would be to remove both OS's and reload Vista and make the partition bigger at that time....
I deleted both partitions thinking it would let me format/ recreate a bigger single partition for Vista. It won't do that. I now have 2 unallocated drives and no primary drive, only a logical. I tried then to just reload Vista onto the same partition it just came off of and it starts to load and then I get an error.
My system is set up in a RAID 0 config and the array shows up in the BIOS.
I additionally have a swap partition and a data partition that I can see when I am trying to load Vista so I believe those are okay.
I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas on what I might try to get Vista back on and or how I can combine these to "unallocated" drives as one.
Is it something to do with a RAID driver needed for the OS to continue?
Thanks much for your help!!
