My computer currently should have a 120 GB Hard Drive. I even opened up my computer and looked at the hard drive and it says directly on it I have 120 GB. But unfortunatley only 60 GB of it is available to the C Drive which is my primary drive. There were two other drives used by the D and E Drives. D was a backup and E was a recovery. I didnt know how to get rid of them so I used the Administrative Tools and went to Computer Management and deleted the Partitions. Unfortunatley my computer still only has 60 GB as opposed to 120 like it should. Where the heck did the other 60 GB go? How can I get it back without reformatting my hard drive. The computer I am using is the MD Titanium 8000 XL from Medion. The motherboard it runs is the MSI 684 Max.

After you deleted the partitions - you need to recreate them or only one. You can Not make one large C drive without a program like Partition Magic which costs approx $75.00 USD.

Or you could try GParted LiveCD (Google it, its fun!) It costs one blank cd.
Of course, with all partition software, there is risk - GParted has failed me the least! (But it sure has failed before!)
