Hi,


I need to expend my c: drive where Windows is installed in VMware Workstation 6.0. Is there any way to do that?

You can add space to the system partition, but after you do so, you need to use a 3rd party tool like GParted (http://gparted.sourceforge.net) or Paragon to see the added space in the guest OS. Use their site to get instructions on how to do so as well:

VMware's KB on how to do this:
http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1004047 :  

1. Open VMware Infrastructure (VI) Client and connect to VirtualCenter or the ESX host.
2. Right-click the virtual machine.
3. Click Edit Settings.
4. Select Virtual Disk.
5. Increase the size of the disk
And: http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1004071

Another option is to use vCenter Converter Standalone to 'convert' the VM and during the conversion wizard, choose to increase the size of the system partition disk:

Though that would take longer IMO.
