I know, "google it nub," but I want a program that somebody can vouch for with experience.
Just need to merge a couple partitions without data loss.

I am not sure you can. I would play it safe and copy the data from the partitions, then merge them.

if this is Vista or 7 then it is possible
If there's space then copy/move everything to the "C:" partition, delete the other(s) then expand C: to take up the whole drive..
If your C: doesn't have room then the only way I know of is to back everything up onto an external drive (or another PC over the network), boot up the windows install CD then delete all partitions and start again from there (restoring the backup afterwards). ===================================== It smells of spoon! ===================================== |

You are describing enlarging a partition. That can be done, I have used parted before and it has option for it.
Merging two partitions is whole different ball game.
