Default hard drives halp

Hi,
I have a dell computer with windows xp home with service pack 2 on
it.
I noticed in windows explorer that there is a local disk C:\ and
local disk f:\.
There are 2 cd-rom called D: an E:.
I was wondering if I could combine C:\local disk and local disk f: ?
Remember that dell gives a xp cd-rom for dell's xp.
The drivers are on another disk.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,

No, you can't combine them without using a third party program. Also, OEM's
like Dell often have recovery tools on a small partition, so it is best left
alone.
