So you run a Dual-boot-system and this is the first time you realize that? You must have installed it!

....Yes, but how to get rid of it ??

@Del 80
In msconfig start TAB delete the 2nd entry
Just rightclick on (D:) and select format.
Then you can use it as storage for files

Mmmhhh......Done that, but by mistake I didn't format it......anyway it's gone, and now starting normally......have I done any damage ??.......

@Del 80
Don't worry!
You can still format it and use it as storage for files.
Open Diskmanagement and rightclick on (D:) and select format. That's all

.....Yes, it's still there in Diskmanagement, but the format option is greyed out !!

@Del 80
Then open Command Prompt and run as Administrator
C:\WINDOWS\system32>diskpart
list disk
sel disk # (replace # by the disk number containing the (C:) (0 or 1 ?)
list par
sel par # (replace # last partition number
delete partition override
create partition primary
format quick fs=ntfs label="Data"
assign letter=D

copy&paste the commands and you are ready

In mbr the c: partition must be active I think.

Mmmhhh.......will try, but probably beyond my limited capabilities......I am self taught, but didn't have a very good teacher !!......anyway it looks like no harm done, many thanks for the replies.....
