So, what I want to do, is delete the Windows from the HDD, and merge the three partitions together. I know an 80GB HDD is not much, but it should be temporary, until I can get a bigger one.

Do you need to keep the data? If not, just blow away the existing partitions and create 1 new partition utilizing all the available(80GB) space

I just looked at the picture. You've listed the logical drives, but not the physical drives. What does it show in drive management

Windows has a built in tool called "Disk Manager" that will allow you to delete the existing partitions on the drive and format it.

I'm guessing I should just right click on all the Disk 0 volumes's and delete them and then format it. Since there's not gonna be a Windows on the Disk 0 I can delete the system reserved partition as well. Right? I'm not exactly clear on what that little partition does.

Correct, you can delete the system reserved as well, including all other partitions on disk 0. This will not affect your current load of windows.

Do not delete any partitions on disk 1
