• Cannot delete the partition with windows xp a clean installation

  Hello
  Thanks in advance for any help.
  I'm doing a clean install of windows xp pro. When I get to the screen to delete the partition by pressing the d nothing happens. I'm sure start out of the cd. First attempt to do a fresh install. Any help would be appreciated

  Hi rlsajs,

  Is it a custom computer or pre-built as a HP, Dell, etc. ?
  Is your USB keyboard? If so, you may need to enable "bios powered" usb in the BIOS of your computer.
  By default, many computers are set to "Operating System" controlled USB which means that your keyboard does not work entirely until Windows has started, and you need it to work before Windows started as you go through the Setup for a new installation.
  Hope this helps and answer back with questions. If you need help getting into the BIOS of your system you will need to contact the manufacturer of your computer.
  BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can resolved e. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

• partition 'Windows cannot delete the active system partition on this disk.

  I created a partition of HARD drive in order to install a system in multiboot using XP and Vista, but I did mess up the BONES of the two. Now I want to do a clean install of Vista ONLY, but I don't know how to get rid of the partition! * Example: Computer management > disk management > right-click on the volume (M) > Delete Volume * but I get an error: "Windows cannot delete the active system partition on this disk" can someone help me to get my Vista to original?

  P.S. I have the "Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium32 - bit Operating System Disk" provided with my computer when I bought it new. Thank you! -Jeff

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  Delete the existing Partitions during the process.

• Cannot find the partition recovery on the Satellite A200-1BP

  Hello

  First of all, I have a Vista Home Premium 1BP A200 and I lost the product recovery disc and I want to create one with "Recdisc.exe" product of Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator or Vista.

  They both failed because I didn't get a message "No disk HARD recovery Area!", then I looked in the "Disk management" section and could not find any partition without a name.

  There were two primary Partition which were 1.46 GB 'in good condition (EISA Configuration)"and my Vista (c).
  So, what should I do? Can I create a recovery partition?
  Or can I set the Recovery Disc Creator? (v. 5.0.0.5)

  PS: I got my computer several times with my CD, which probably used my recovery partition.
  Seriously, I'm out of ideas and I don't want to lose 50 dollars just to get another copy of disc PR.

  PS2: I used press '0' and 'F8' thing too, they no longer work.
  Is there a way I can restore without any disk?

  It seems that the recovery of HARD drive partition is missing
  The first 1.46 GB partition is automatically created by Vista and the C partition is the system partition, the partition of HARD drive recovery doesn't seem to be available

  > PS: I got my computer several times with my CD, which probably used my recovery partition.
  Retrieve you the Vista using the recovery disc or what drive did you use?

  If you have installed the system using Microsoft Vista disk then, it was a big mistake because it deleted the partition of HARD drive

  > Is there a way I can restore without any disk?
  Either you use a Vista MS disk and missing drivers, which you can download from the Toshiba page or you order the Toshiba Recovery disk don't see another solution

• Delete the partition created in reformatting/reinstall for A50

  Then when I got my Toshiba Satellite A50, he had no partition that I knew of, just a drive C with XP installed on it. But the disk that it came with to reformat the hard drive and reinstall XP is creating a partition!

  So it's not the original or set up installation I've had... I have an external hard drive, I don't want a partition.

  How can I delete the partition? I'm ready to completely reformat the entire hard drive again, but if so, how do I that?

  The Toshiba CD doesn't really give me a prompt to go reformatting the hard drive me...

  The other annoying, that of my C drive is NTFS, but the disc creates a drive NTFS and FAT32 other... too... which is really scary, is when the Toshiba disk loads, it says "loading Windows 98"... to my understanding of my laptop NEVER had 98 on it... I pray that this is not a 98 - xp upgrade. It seems that someone gave me the wrong drive with my laptop computer?

  Or am I worrying over nothing?

  Hello Lou

  Believe me worry for nothing! Please don t be confused about W98 loading message. The unit starts in DOS mode and it's the same as on W98.

  Now step by step explanation: I did the procedure of recovery many times and have a little experience with it.

  When starts, CD recovery menu displays with two options: modes of STANDARD facilities and EXPERT. STANDARD mode simply erase the whole HARD drive and creates one partition (the whole HARD disk capacity) for the installation of the OS.
  EXPERT mode should be used if you want to install the operating system on already created partition or if you want to create a new partition for the installation of the OS. Note You can create only the first partition it (C :) and you can not edit already created the partition.)

  In my opinion, it is always good to have two partitions, one for the operating system and installation and a second for recording data. You might not always drive external HARD with you. If something is wrong at any time, you can install the OS on the first partition without losing the data stored on the other.

  Anyway, to start the recovery procedure and choose the recovery STANDARD (option 1) procedure. The whole HARD drive will be formatted and Os will be installed on a partition.

  Bye and if you have any other questions please write again.

• Impossible to delete the partitions or format C

  I have a mobile shadow Smart Power (a special Aldi 2004), which comes with no hidden restore disc, but it has a much utility and disk etc. drive OEM drive.  I need to reformat C and reinstall XP Home... nothing seems to work - after surfing several hours for a reply and try to all the ones I found!  I can not get an option to format using disk management, because it is grayed out, and if I use the disc provided as a boot disk, I can't delete the partition as it says that it is in use / mounted.  Can anyone help please... as I suspect that the XP disc resembles C and just by looking at him, he believes that it is in use, so it will not let me delete the partition or format C.  I don't know how to get around this problem with the discs that I have... and experience tells me that shadow are desperate for assistance to the user, so there is probably no point of contact with them.

  All I can understand about shadow is that it was an Austrian company which has since been bought by a Taiwanese company and has almost no information available online support (although there seems to be quite expensive telephone support lines).

  You cannot remove or format the system partition (the one where Windows) of Windows.  This is why there are bootable CD installation/restoration of the system, the idea being that if you run with an operating system on the CD, you can do what you like on the hard drive.

  Your drive "OEM", is supposed to be a system restore disk or just a collection of software and drivers?

  If it is a restore disk, when you start from it, it should just restore the computer to its original state, or at least give you an option to do so.

  Can you describe the screens that appear when you start from your OEM drive?

• Impossible to remove an unknown account, get the error 'cannot delete the unknown account because this object inherits permissions from its parent.

  I have several programs that when I go to security there is an unknown account and when I try to delete unknown account I get this message that you cannot delete the Unknown(S-1...) account because this object inherits from its parent perssions. To delete the Unknown(S-1...) account, you must prevent this object from inheriting permissions. Turn off the option for the inheritance of permissions and then try to delete the Unknown(S-1...) account again. I tried the edit and advance features in respect of security without success. Why have I not control over security permissions?

  Found a solution to this problem.

  Go to the folder parent of the folder that contains the files with this unknown account number:
  1. right click on the PARENT folder, and then click Properties.
  2. on the Security tab, go to the advanced options (bottom window)
  3. in the new window, click the button change the permissions in the bottom.
  4. Select the Group (NOT AUTHENTICATED, just of users USERS) users
  5. check "replace all permissions of child object with permissions inheritable of this object.
  6. click on the OK button or apply and done, fixed number.

  Hope this helps anyone else having this problem, for me it happened after reinstallation of win 7 on the same machine and keep my images on another partition, so it was spared by the new facility, so the old user account was always on the file permissions.

• Deleted the partition using a portable drive now computer part starts, it says: no media present

  Original title: Start-up aid

  Well, then I got the bluescreen 0cx000021c yesterday and got during windows startup. I think it is a blue screen of material, if I'm wrong?

  Which is probably my HARD drive that I got a response from here somewhere, and the guy said it was probably a faulty HARD drive.

  I had to get my data from the school of my pc, so I can send my laptop MSI for repairs. I could not find a way to copy my D drive on my drive externel but tried Diskpart to clean everything first, and maybe put it on the C drive D drive, hoping that I could do a clean install without losing the files of my D drive.

  Now to the problem. I feel really stupid to do so, especially to be a 1st year in a COMPUTER at the College course. I use Diskpart and I accidentally this is cleaned up, and I cleaned my table of partition or something like that. So now all my partitions are parties, I have read that maybe my files still on my laptop just my scores have disappeared.

  Now I can't get to the CMD, at the start of my laptop, it says there is no media and then goes to BIOS. I tried a cd Hirensboot, but he repeats to me without media present I also put on Cd/DVD boot first priority

  Hi TonSchepers,

  You deleted the partition, it would be extremely difficult to recover data. You may need to use some third-party data recovery software to get your data.

  Third party WARNING: Using third-party software can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

  If your computer is under warranty, please consider the manufacturer. If this is not the case, try these suggestions.

  Remove the hard drive of this computer and connect it to a working computer. Check if it detects the hard drive. If it detects, see if you can back up your data on this computer.

  Try to format the hard drive using another computer and connect it to your computer and check if detects also in the computer.

  Note: Formatting the hard drive, you erase the data on this subject.

  Hope that the information provided is useful. Do not respond if you need more help.

• Is it safe to delete the partition OSXRESERVED? because it is still there after the installation of windows 10

  then it restarts and I upgraded towing 10 Windows later and update the bootcamp drivers

  Then I start to Mac OS X, but the OSXRESERVED partition is still there.

• How to extend the partition C on Satellite L450 - 17K

  Hello

  I'm working on how I can change the size of the partition on my hard drive my C drive is nearly full, and D is a pain to keep anything on that most of what I have links to my Ipad that does not detect it when its on drive D!

  Is there anyway to delete the partition or change the size of it without losing my data or having to restart my system?

  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  It is possible to change the size of the partitions in the management of the disks in win 7.

  But you will not be able to shrink the partition D and add this free space on the C partition using the Windows option because the free space would be created after the D partition.
  To move the free space between D and C partition a 3rd party software is necessary.

  I recommend the use of a tool called * GParted.*

  It s freeware and you can use it to manage your partitions on the HARD disk.
