RE: See partition and logical drive as same
as i said, you cannot mark a new volume because there is no unpartitioned space on either drive. To do this with only XP, you will need to DELETE BOTH VOLUMES FIRST, LOSING ALL DATA ON THESE DRIVES!

XP cannot resize volumes and definitely cannot merge two existing volumes to a span set.

There is no way to go about creating the spanned disks as you want without losing data on these drives. If you are REALLY persistent about getting this done, make a backup of EVERYTHING first. Do this OUTSIDE of Windows (learn how to use the DOS command xcopy). You also cannot delete the volume that Windows resides on while Windows is running, you'll have to use an XP CD and the Recovery console to do this.

on the screenshot Ryxpia made, right-click on any of the drives listed on the top half and select "Change drive letter or paths..." Further instructions are in my first reply.
