use easeus partition manager to extend that second partition to occupy the raw space. Or better, you can boot from a LIVE gparted CD to accomplish your objective.

Are you creating the first partition as 10GB and the second one as 20GB.

I think this will work, connect your HDD, and go to disk managemnet
1. Create the first partition of your size as primary partition
2. Create a extended partition out of the remaining space
3. next create logical partition out of the extended partition
4. Format all the partition

Its done
