Issues Uninstalling Ubuntu; Not recoginzing full size of partition after resizing?

Posted on December 31, 2011 by admin| 3 Comments

I had an XP home and Ubuntu dual boot installation and I tried to uninstall Ubuntu by following this guide: http://users.bigpond.net.au/hermanzone/p18.htm.

I did the first step successfully and restored the windows boot loader with FIXMBR.

The second step however didn’t go so well. I used gparted on the Ubuntu Live CD to delete the Linux partitions but when to tried to resized the Windows NTFS partition from 37 GB to 75 GB it came up with an error. However when I rebooted and when back into gparted it appered as though it worked and showed the NTFS partition as being 75 GB. Though when I restarted into windows and checked the c: drive in My Computer it still showed the size as 37 GB. Though when I check the size in windows Diskpart it shows the size as 75 GB.

What am I doing wrong?

I don’t have to reformat after resizing, do I?

Linux Pocket Guide gets you up to speed quickly on day-to-day Linux use. It’s organized the way you use Linux: by function, not just alphabetically. It’s not the ‘bible of Linux; it’s a practical and concise guide to the options and commands you need most. It starts with general concepts like files and directories, the shell, and X windows, and then presents detailed overviews of the most essential commands, with clear examples. You’ll learn each command’s purpose, usage, options, location on disk, and even the RPM package that installed it. The Linux Pocket Guide is tailored to Fedora Linux–the latest spin-off of Red Hat Linux–but most of the information applies to any Linux system. Throw in a host of valuable power user tips and a friendly and accessible style, and you’ll quickly find this practical, to-the-point book a small but mighty resource for Linux users.
