Thanks. Took a bit of getting used to - but this is certainly better. I also found out (via google) that unallocated space has to be next to the partition you want to merge it with - which makes sense :D. This program helped a lot, thank you. :)

Hello, I have a 1TB external HDD and need 3 partitions. 1 is a media partition with music, films ect, 1 a backup and 1 with other important files (such as family pictures ect). The media partition is the biggest, but I wish to extend it with unallocated space. I have tried doing it with W7 but I get a similar error with Vista (on a laptop). Any idea whats wrong or what I need to do? http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii31/jamesyyyya/partition1.png http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii31/jamesyyyya/partition2.png http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii31/jamesyyyya/partition3.png http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii31/jamesyyyya/partition4.png The media partition is the WD Elements 1TB partiton on disk 1. I am administrator and have also tried in safe mode. Any help is appreciated, thank you.

Hey, How was your trip? Yeah its running fine now, nothing suspicious happening. Thank you. ;) The thing Eset removed was safe, but iv uninstalled the whole thing anyway, it was useless.

Yes I do download some TV, but not very much. Very rarely though (only because I dont want to pay lots for something which I'm only going to use for 30 minutes). Anyway, here are the reports:

Hey, just got on found that both "Hide extensions for known file types" and "hide protected operating system files (Recommended)" with unchecked and "show hidden files, folders and drives" was selected (I realised as there was stuff on my desktop that I have very limited knowledge about (all I know id they are operating system files (or think so anyway (desktop.ini & mvstcdxx.lst). Thanks.

Thanks again :p

thanks for the help. I had done the malware before you posted:

Hello, I wrote most of this last night in notepad as I was bound to forget it. Google chrome is my main web browser but now it isn't loading up. hen I click on the icon the PC sounds like its doing something, then stops as if it was done. I redownloaded the installer and when trying to install, I get this error message: "Unknown installer error". My chrome short cut goes to "C:\Users\James\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe". When I hover over chrome.exe, it says "file version: 0.0.0.0" shich doesn't sound right. Could it be a virus? Firefox loads up fine. Before (maybe the problem?) I was following a tutorial on how to allow Windows media player to show the mini toolbar (http://www.askvg.com/how-to-get-wind...-in-windows-7/) I got to the end, restarted and tried to play music. hen clicking on an MP3, WMP11 loaded up but didn't play the songs although it played songs already in the library fine. I started to do windows restore but before I did, WMP11 started to load up again, tryin to play the MP3. I closed it and continued. Thats where im up to now. the PC restarted and chrome was dead since. I downloaded TDSSKiller (kaspersky) and uploaded an image of the result.
