I know this is a computer programming section, but there isn't a general computer section so I guess I will just ask here.. hope you all don't mind.

Anyways, I have a 120gb internal hard drive in my computer. When I got Best Buy to install XP for me, they made my hard drive show up as two drives on my computer, one 60gb and one 60gb. If I am correct, I think it's called they partitioned my hard drive. Anyways I can deal with two drives showing up, but I just put in a 80gb hard drive and my computer automatically partitioned that drive.. I now have 4 drives on my computer. It's very annoying. Is there a way for me to take this 80gb hard drive and make it show up on my computer as just 80gb?

If you can help me, I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks!

Control panel, performance & maintenance, admin tools, compute rmanagement, disk management (under storage), you can probably delete the extra partitions there.
