Help!
On my Pentium 4 system running Windows XP Profesional ver 5.1 Build 2600
with Service Pack 2, my 140GB primary drive is divided into two
partitions---an 11.72GB (non-dynamic) NTFS system partition mapped as the
C-drive and a 120.01GB unallocated partition. I am down to 40MB of free
space in the system partition. Is there an elegant way to join the
unallocated partition to the system partition such that I have one single
140GB partition as the C-drive and therefore lots more available space?

What do you mean by "elegant"? Not losing data?
Have you tried disk management under System in Control Panel?
If that won't do it for you, there are several 3rd party utilities that will
do the job. Acronis Disk Director Suite is my weapon of choice.

Try posting your question to a Windows group in the future. This is a .Net
Programming newsgroup.

Having said that, I agree with pvdg42 about Acronis Disk Director. Great
piece of software for repartitioning drives.
