    Yayyyyy, success:):):):):):):):)
    Restarting computer made vanished hard drive re-appear. Both partitions had been empty. I put a photo in each and managed to merge them. Not sure if the restart or putting data on the drive helped. Thanks to everyone who helped.

    The bad news is I'm only emptying the drive to back up a friends 100% full computer before removing Norton, running malware, de-fragging and installing antivirus.
  • ^^ I am grateful for any help and I am not arguing with anyone. All of your responses to me have been bizzarely rude. Looking through your other posts its something you make a habit of.
    If anyone else can offer further advice it would be appreciated.
    You might change your signature line for something less provocative...

    On subject: Easeus Partition Master is the best free tool for this sort of job.

    Signature line was a realisation after dealing with two large organisations overloaded with incompetant staff. It's not aimed at anyone on here allthough it does fit sometimes. Thanks for the advice about the partition tool.

    Edit. If anyone is confused by the above thread, another poster has deleted their posts.
