windows 2008 Cannot extend volume for c

Question

I have a 150 GB hard drive on a windows 2008 server.

  • 87 GB partition for D:
  • 10 GB partition for C:

I cannot extend/increase the partition for C: in the disk manager utility.
as described here:
http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/resize-a-partition-for-free-in-windows-vista/
I tried doing it through the command:

However I got the error: There is not enough space available on the disk(s) to complete this operation.

Answer

Is there unallocated free space in which to extend it? You won’t be able to extend the C: drive into the space occupied by the D: drive unless you delete the D: drive.
