HI and please correct me if I am wrong but you can only have 4 partitions to a drive unless you have a extended partition. So you will have to delete a partition then create a extended partition then you will be able to creat more partitions within the extended.

no, a harddisk can have 4 primary partitions... if you want to have more than 4 partitions, use extended ones... so delete one primary and make it an extended one.
