Partition Question

I've never had to deal with Parttions before so forgive my ignorance....

I am using Vitsa Home Premium and decided to dual boot with Kubuntu which I
absolutely hated. I removed Kubuntu by deleting the partition then restoring
the boot manager for Vista.

The partition that contained Kubuntu is now empty. I would like to merge the
partition back into Vista. How do I do this?

Open up Computer Management...format it to NTFS.
It will still remain a separate drive without using a third party partition
tool.

Let me qualify that by saying I could not Extend the Vista partition Back
into that reclaimed space with Vista Home Premium.
Maybe other versions of Vista can.
I have done the exact same thing....I ended up re-installing to get my
partitions back to XP, Vista , and a Swap/Music partition.

As you can see, the Tiger Extraordinaire is a hard fought title....difficult
to attain...even more difficult to get to show up in the sig.

Any ideas for more letters to include in my sig.
I'm prone to Capitalized constanants...J, Q , and W's are my favorites.
MissAK was disputed, but as a tiger I ate the last contestant.... in my
book, that makes me the clear winner.

Go to the Drivemanagement, remove the Ubuntu-partition, click
right at the Windowspartition and expand the partition with the
free space.

You will need a third-party disk/partition manager. You can't do it
with what Windows gives you to work with.
