Cant resize my xp partition after deleting vista

[CHAOSMAN]

I shrunk my XP partition in order to create a 20gb Vista partition. I ended up not installing it, so i deleted the 20gb vista part, so its now unallocated space, however in patition magic i am unable to put that space onto my C drive. Any ideas how to get it to work?

here are some screens to give u an idea:

I think you will need to delete that little Yellow partition labled as Type CB ( cb reserved for DRDOS/secured (FAT32) ). Unless you know why it is there??? If you don't want to delete it move it to the end of the drive. Then you can increase your windows partition.

Notice it has no status... I would just delete it, then resize the NTFS partition as I wanted.
