I've just finished installing the Win XP Professional OS on my 200gb drive. during this process i created a 20GB partition on the same disk. Installation went fine but the partition is listed as " 20 GB unallocated" in disk management. how can i safely get this space allocated ? can i just right click format it in windows explorer ?
