Answer 1

That's an Acer/Toshiba sign. You can merge the partitions together, however, I wouldn't advise you to do that. When the 56gb gets filled up, just move everything over to your other partition. It's all on the same hard drive, it's just got 2 "sections", if you will. You do have about 120gb; you'll never get all your hard drive space. I have a 40GB, and I only have 37.2GB... for example. You'll be able to work around it.

Hope this helps.

Hi Ben

I take it that your laptop came with vista installed

Vista partitions part of your hard drive to install the recovery files on. that is so when you have a problem you can use your recovery disk that came with the laptop to recover your files.

The drives usually read as drive c  main drive and drive e recovery drive

The recovery partition must be available  do not format it. if you do you can not recover vista using the recovery cd
