• Not able to create the new partition in disk management.

  Original title: Windows XP Home Edition Partition Question

  I tried to create another partition on my computer running Windows XP, but when I go to disk management, it doesn't let me do anything when I right click on a partition. I can't make a new (tried with cmd and disk management) and I can't change the current criteria. Is there an option somewhere that prevents you from changing or something? Almost many of the options are grayed out and I can't make a new partition. How can I fix? I want to make another partition.

• Create the logical drive using the disk manager

  I want to create a partition for logical disk on an external hard drive using disk management

  Hello

  Disk management will create primary partitions until you create the 4th one, it is not customizable. If you want more options, you must use the diskpart command line, see: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc766465 (WS.10) .aspx Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP Windows help-www.rickrogers.org-http://mvp.support.microsoft.com

• Windows 7 disk management utility does not allow for creating simple volume: maximum number of partitions exceeded error

  I am trying to create a new partition in Win7 using the disk management utility. Shrank lecteurC existing to create unallocated space. Am not able to create a simple volume with this space unallocated due to the following error message.

  "You cannot create a new volume in this unallocated space because the disk already contains the maximum number of partitions".

  How to fix this or go around with another method to create partitions?

  Hello

  You will need to convert the dynamic disk before creating the extra partition. To do this in disk management:

  -Right-click the disk 0 (gray area) which indicates the total size of your hard drive

  -Select 'convert to dynamic disk.

  Once you have converted to dynamic disk, you will be able to go and create the new simple partition.

  I hope this helps.

• Disk management does not allow me to create the simple volume

  I have a 60 GB SSD and a 1 TB drive.

  I reinstalled Windows 7 and partitioned md SSD for the OS. I want to use my hard drive for storage.
  So now I have the SSD as my drive (C :) with only the OS and installed programs important. When I go to disk management, it shows my disk 0 looking fine, then it shows my disc 1 (my 1 TB HHD) empty, not even let me create a simple volume.
  Whenever I do a right-click on disk 1 I only get the option "change drive letters and paths...» »

  How can I fix it?

  Go to http://www.easeus.com and download free Easeus Partition Master.  It is much easier to use and works when the Windows disk management program is not.

  Good luck.

• Cannot create a new partition of drive c through disk management

  Hey... !!! r

  am using the windows operating system 8. I try to create the disk partition with disk management option, I find no option to do so. It says "connecting to virtual disk service" and no response.  help me how to create readers D E F.

  Hello

  You can create the new partition of the available free space. For example, if you have 1 TB in C and suppose that 500 GB is free, you can do a right click on C in disk management and select reduce the Volume. Make sure that you have selected the new volume lower than the space available for free so enter you anything according to your requirement, but be sure that it is less than 500 GB. In seconds, you have new volume, call it as D or whatever you want. Similarly, you can create E, F and so on.
  Hope this helps, good luck :)

• Satellite Pro U400 VISTA disk management has 6 primary partitions

  Hi all!

  I have a strange effect on my Toshiba laptop Satellite Pro U400 (but it seems not to be specific to this one that I saw the same symptoms elsewhere, at the same time):

  I had the laptop with a 320 GB drive with recovery-(invisible / "Configuration EISA", 1,46 Go) system (C:, ~ 150 GB) and data (E:, ~ 150 GB) volumes. It's the usual structure of Toshiba,

  pre-installed OS was Vista professional.

  As I plan to install Linux in addition, I have done as a result of preparations:

  Recovery disc Vista created 1.).
  2.) C: shrunk to ~ 100 GB using Vista disk management tool.
  3.) E: shrunk to Go ~ 98 using Vista disk management tool.
  It is suggested that 4.) E: directly behind C: using Parted Magic CD.

  Finally I got a 97 GB of free space at the end of the disc, and everything worked well away. Creating an additional on the free area, Vista disk management, resulted in an extended partition created by Vista. This extended partition contained the extra volume as well as the free space remaining behind.

  To prepare for installing Linux, I've finally created three logical Volumes inside the extended partition with Vista disk management tool.
  After that, I had the following structure of the partition on the disk (indicated by the Vista Disk Manager):

  invisible 1.46 GB, primary
  C:, ~ 100 GB NTFS, primary, active, System
  E:, ~ 98 GB NTFS, primary, data

  ~ 97 GB extended partition, containing:
  2 GB unformatted (planned for Linux swap)
  20 GB unformatted (planned for Linux root "/")
  21 GB unformatted (planned for Linux "/ home")
  Empty remaining 54 GB space

  More on Vista worked properly!

  Recently, I installed OpenSuse 11.1 using the volumes placed within extended partitions (user-specific configuration). The Installation worked correctly. Logical volumes have been formatted to

  2 GB of swap (swap Linux, / dev/sda5)
  20 GB ext3 (Linux root ' / ' on/dev/sda6)
  21 GB unformatted (Linux "/ home" on/dev/sda6)

  during the installation of Linux. Linux and Vista up and running with their scores. If I look at the hard drive with Linux' partitioning tool, I see three main partitions + range, as expected. The scope contains the Linux partitions + empty disk space.

  HOWEVER:
  ========

  If I look at the hard drive with the Vista disk management tool now, I get the following image:

  invisible 1.46 GB, primary
  C:, ~ 100 GB NTFS, primary, active, System
  E:, ~ 98 GB NTFS, primary, data
  2 GB PRIMARY, no format info displayed
  20 GB PRIMARY, no format info displayed
  21 GB PRIMARY, no format info displayed
  Empty remaining 54 GB space

  This means:
  VISTA DISK MANAGMENT ME PRESENT 6 PRIMARY PARTITIONS WITHOUT ANY COMPLAIN
  Although a hard drive on the PC architecture usually only supports maximum 4 primary partitions.

  Issues related to the:

  Have you ever seen a similar behavior?

  Is this a bug of presentation in the Vista disk management tool?

  Or is it a bug in formatting under Linux?

  Is there a solution for this problem?

  At present, the two BONES work very well. However, the disk will be get permanently damaged as soon as I try to create more partitions in the empty space left?

  Sincere greetings and thanks for your comments.

  Girard

  > Have you ever see similar behavior?
  NO.

  > Is this a bug of presentation in the Vista disk management tool?
  I doubt that it is a bug, I think you forgot something.

  As far as I know you can create 4 partitions on the HARD drive and this is the reason why you have the ability to create an extended partition.
  An extended partition can be divided into several logical drives.

  That is why it s wise to create a primary partition for Windows OS for example and an extended partition, which can decompose the in logical drives (partitions) different.

  However, I put t see a problem if everything works properly

• Re: Satellite L355D - how to create a recovery disk?

  I searched all over the forums, but does not know how to create a recovery disk works for my laptop. I know it is run from a partition on the HARD drive, but I can't figure out how to access this partition. Should there be some sort of built-in utility?

  Thank you

  You can create the recovery only DVD disc if your laptop computer has preinstalled Toshiba recovery disc creator and factory settings.

  Please check if you can find this tool under start > all programs > Toshiba. There you should find shortcuts to launch this utility.

• Screen flickers on Satellite L300 and I am unable to create a recovery disk

  Hi all

  I just bought a model L300 PSLB0C 08R08C number.
  I was unable to create a recovery disk, I was getting an error message saying it cannot create disk because it is scratched or has dirt on it, I lost 5 nine DVD.

  I am went to the store and replaced by another unit, but had the same problem (I have not tried a different brand of DVD well)

  Second issue with this device, the screen flashes once whenever it is in a shutdown state.
  Number 3, the wireless card disappears from the Device Manager, until I restart.
  Laptop made in China ;-)

  Any suggestions are much apprecaited

  Hello

  It is indeed strange that you were unable to create a recovery disk, and that the problem has resurfaced, even after permutation of the laptop with another unit of the store. However, if you have not tried a different brand of DVD so I suggest that if the laptop asks the disc is scratched or has dirt on it. I'm not sure if toshiba factory in fact blank DVDs, but if they do, it would be a starting point, as one would expect hardware toshiba would happily work with their own brand DVD media. However, if you can't find toshiba dvd then use another trust mark, for example, Imation and TDK. with my experience, I have tried many brands of DVD and have found very reliable TDK.

  regarding the second question, this may be related to the graphics card in the system, or could be due to the performance of the computer laptop itself. Check that you have the latest driver for your graphics card and all the settings on the computer are optimized / hard drives are defragmented and deleted unnecessary files. with your third question, this question could also be related to driver problems, check your regional drivers toshiba site for the latest drivers again. failing this, I would back up your data and then restore to a factory condition, then install the drivers immediately. I hope this info can help you somehow.

  Welcome to the forums and please leave helpful points or correct answer for any useful advice that has been given in response to your problems (e.g. to read the forum rules)

  Hello

  I'll try to clarify the situation on your HARD drive. as far as I know your laptop comes with preinstalled a? Media Express Playera?. It's small? Linux-baseda? application and it is installed on the small unallocated partition (about 250 MB). Please leave it is.

  Partition is primary can be reduced by about 40%. Of these 40% you leave, you can install Vista OS. On this way, you will have two operating systems, and every time that you start your laptop starts a? Manager will ask you what OS you want to boot.

  When you start the installation of Vista installation program will ask you where the Vista must be installed. Choose please this second partition.

  Let us know the results.

• Y580 HARD disk management

  Hello to all in the community,

  I bought a Y580 with 1 TB of HARD drive and preinstalled with freeDOS. I created two partitions with the space unallocated a 60 GB to install windows 7 x 64 (which I did) and the other about 800 GB to store data. So when I check the disk management, I can see a 30 GB partition which I suppose is the freeDOS installed there, a partition of 1 GB oem who I don't know its purpose, the windows partition, the partition of data and also 30 GB of unallocated space.

  I tried to format the partition of freeDOS, who was also in FAT32 system but I got an error indicating that the disk is in use and so on. My plan was to have only two partitions, one for windows and one for data. When I tried to make inactive the pc has worked well, but on reboot, I got an error message saying "BOOTMGR is missing press ctrl + alt + delete to restart»

  So using acronis disk director, I changed the partition to active and I was able to get into windows again.

  My question is, why the laptop cannot start without this partition marked as active? Also, I can't merge the 800 GB partition with 30 GB unallocated, space even if I delete the volume. So generally is there a way to delete the partition of freeDOS, or merge at least the 800 GB with 30 GB space without having to reinstall windows?

  I think that these limitations of Windows. IMO, you simply delete all partitions, create a new one for the system, install Windows and then create a new partition for storage.

• Create shortcuts to control in the structure of the event

  I create a structure event with radio buttons dialog box.  Is it possible to create shortcuts to select each option button, similar to the underlined letter to windows?  I use a chain with keyfocus = true control to change the radio button selection, but when the user moves elsewhere, focus is lost.  Is it possible to set the focus without control of the chain in the case of delay of vote when the focus is lost?

  Because it is universal... to capture the key event seems to be the best choice.  Mostly because I wouldn't give up my function & the tab order.  I also added a second table of char ASCII codes to search and manage shortcuts of capital letters.  Thank you!
