Can't you use PM to delete that partition and merge the resulting FREE space to the C primary partition?

Originally I had wanted to keep the Dell partition just in case it might be useful at some point. But it was at the front of the drive, where I wanted to place a differrent partition, and I could not move it using Bootitng, but Bootitng did allow me to delete it.
