Hi, you can follow this Guide http://www.petri.co.il/extend-disk-partition-vista-windows-server-2008.htm HTHEdoardo Benussi - Microsoft MVP Management Infrastructure - Systems Administration https://mvp.support.microsoft.com/Profile/Benussi Windows Server Italian Forum Moderator edo[at]mvps[dot]org

Thanks, I have used that article before, but the thing was, that I did not delete the second partition, so even if there was free space left at the end of a disk it could not be used. After deleting the partition before it worked fine. Jakub

Hi, As this thread quiet for a while, I wonder if you have solved your problem. Assuming you have fixed, in case of who have the same problem. I think there are better solutions with step by step tutorial. I hope they will be helpful. Solution1: Disk Management The Disk Management in Windows 2008 can only extend volume into contiguous unallocated space. You can not extend partition unless deleting the next partition. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/325590 Solution2: Reliable Partition Software As Disk Management alternative, some Partition Manager Server software is another good choice. http://www.extend-partition.com/partition-windows-server/extend-system-partition-c-drive-server.html
