split drivers 1

[shedevil1]

I've re-formatted my p/c, as it drivers was spilt into 3. How do I get my drivers back into 1 driver - re-formatting (windows me) it hasn't worked.
I like to thank "SPYDERIX" for his help in re-formatting my p/c - his info was of great value and help.

If what you are saying is that your drive is split into 3 partitions or 3 drives, the resolution is to use fdisk and delete all partitions/drives, then create 1 to the maximum size the OS will take.
Logical drives must be deleted before the extended partition can be removed.
And after the big partition is created, you will have to format it, or let the OS take care of it.

There are drive size limitations with various operating systems. So before anybody leads you further down the primrose path it might be well for you to post what you have for hardware and what you are trying to put on that hardware.
There are BIOS settings that can affect your setup and there are fdisk settings that can affect it, so the more info the better the help.
