Can I merge C drive and drive in XP? In C, XP is installed and D is just for other things as usual...
How much space is needed from VISTA ULTIMATE SP2?

You can't merge two partitions together. You can copy the stuff from one partition to the other, and then delete partition you no longer need.
Be careful though, merging partitions wont adjust system & app settings. Dont be surprised if nothing works after merging
Actually I have only 11.7 GB in C not so suitable for VISTA..
So I want to extend it by taking space from D
D is 10.7 GB.
I want to split D - give 5 GB to C and keep 5 GB in D.
Any solution for this????
Well i would try something like this,
1)Backup the important data from D so that you don't lose any data in D.
2)Using a free partition manager like GParted Live CD,
i)Format the drive D so that C and D have the same type of file system(FAT32/NTFS).
ii)Now Merge the partitions as you wish.
I think this might work if C and D are adjacent partitions in the hard disk. Also keep in mind what Fordy mentioned in #3.

You could probably find a disk twice the size, and with better throughput, in the bargain bin down at the store.
Having shelled out a load of $ for Vista Ultimate (why?), a few extra notes on a decent HD (and maybe pad your machine out to 2GB RAM) would be a worthwhile investment.
If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
