I can't remember for sure, but I don't think so--you'll have to create a whole new (large) partition, but first you have to delete the existing partition--you can't simply "expand" it. So have fun backing everything up! ;) However, if you use all of the drive in one partition (C:), you will end up with 8K clusters--incredibly wasteful. If it were me (and I have done precisely this with mine), I would use the second partition as is--a "D:" drive, which would be 4K clusters, while your C: drive is 2K clusters. That way you waste less space with those smaller files. You'll lose lots of slack space with those 8K clusters--perhaps as much as 30 MB. > In adddition, what does 486 SL-Enhanced DX2-50 mean?
