Hello,
I am a bit puzzled as to how to increase the main os partition.

I have a Windows 2000 server, running all my file, print and Exchange mail.

I allocated 20Gb for the main partition and this soon got chewed up and now when I look at the Event Logs I get Warning Messages that my server has only 960Mb of space left!

I have 2 drives of 40Gb each and these are partioned I have another 19Gb left on the main drive which I would like to use, but don't know how to safely include this space into the C:\ allocation.

If there is now way, is there a way to list all the files in order of the largest, by size, so that to see where all this memory is going....

Or any other suggestions, would be welcomed.

Thanks
 
Why dont't you patition the unallocated space install it as a folder in you c drive. using volume manager you need to be such you have backup because you could damage you patition structure.
