The memory in my PC was devided to 5 equal parts, 31GB each.
The C part is almost full, some of my programs don.t work anymore.

Before messing around with re-partitioning the drive, make sure all your stuff is backed up. The above partition tool will allow you to merge your partitions.

Don't know why you'd want 5 partitions, as you can see, it's a bad idea. Keep two at the most, one for the OS and your programs, another for data. That way you can re-install the OS if needed and not have to touch the data partition. Or even better get a second hard-drive for your data and keep backups of it between the original drive and the new one.

Also, it's not "memory" it's "hard-drive" or "drive space". Memory in computers is the RAM sticks.
