Cable Forum - View Single Post - Converting 'Extended (Logical)' Partition to 'Primary'

Simple question, probably a damn complicated answer.

I have a 100GB 'Extended (Logical)' partition, and I need it to be a 'Primary' partition.

1. Is it possible to convert it?
2. If so, how?

Thanks

Forgot to say, there's not much data on there at the moment - so I can remove it all if that helps the process.

Would rather avoid touching the other primary partition though (the one with ths OS on).
