    Non-partitioned section in my hard drive
    I have a 232 GB hard drive in my computer (OS Windows XP).
    I have one primary partition, and 8 partitions in the secundary partition. 105 GB has not yet been allocated accordingly to disk managament .

    Can anyone please tell me how to do that, without damaging anything in the current partitions?

    Any advice is welcome !

    That does not work : I already tried that, but it only allows me to make a primary partition. But doing that will destroy everything presently already on my hd. You can only have one primary partition on a hd.

    Try this software Partition Magic

    Download Partition Magic 8.0 Free Trial - Partition Magic allows you to create, resize and merge partitions.

    But you need to buy.


    You can do the partition by using this software on running Windows without damaging your PC.
