• delete a partition on my hard drive that was originally set up by the manufacturer as a backup drive hard to label.

  I hope I am posting this on the forum,

  I want to delete a partition on my hard drive that was originally set up by the manufacturer as a backup drive hard to label.

  I went into computer management console & know that the primary partition - drive C system, boot, pagefile, active lists, dump incident & main partition in brackets but I don't know about the virtual memory paging file. No, there is some data on it. I've been saving the other partition - C drive on an external hard drive.

  I know that I have to back up this data but where I should come back to? And why is it called (Primary Partition) when it is used only as a return to the top by car?

  I'm only wanting to do because I'm running out of space on my drive C & D drive are the same size! 143 GB & 139.5 GB

  I have a laptop of Acer 6930

  Window Vista Home Premium Service pack 2

  Hello

  D: is not a partition backup of your machine.

  Acer has a time set up their machines to the way yours is:

  They had a C: drive for the operating system, a drive D: for data (music, movies, etc you would like to register and a recovery partition 'hidden' to reinstall the operating system and to make the recovery discs to do the same thing.)

  You can merge C: and D: as a whole, BUT save all data on D: first because it will be deleted when you merge.

• Help a fool please ~ deleted partition, lost the hard drive size

  I'll try my best to make this as clear as possible, thank you for your time...

  Received my free copy of windows 7 home Premium

  Wanted a clean install (not an upgrade)

  Back up all the data and the programs that I installed

  During the installation of win 7, I deleted the recovery of the system partition and the 2nd partition of my HARD disk (has been labeled d, came that sort of lenovo factory, had 70 GB size I think)

  I thought that if I deleted the partition of the hard drive space would be added to the 1st partition and it did not

  Have materialized with the installation of win 7, and now I just have never found my C: and the GBs of the 2nd old partition so its as if I lowered my total HARD disk size

  How can I get my C: to have all of the 320 GB? Thanks for any advice!

  You can allocate the unused disk space as follows.

  Start > run > diskmgmt.msc

  Right-click on the Windows partition [should be C] and click on "expand". Extend partition as needed and enjoy.

• Equium L350 - 11 d - how do I delete the second partition on the HARD drive

  How can I delete the second partition that came with the laptop, so I can use the full capacity of computers HARD drive?

  I feel that this partition is their because I have not created a DVD of recovery he would remove the partition once I created the recovery DVDs.

  The score contains a folder of HARD disk RECOVERY and in the folder says do not delete or change this folder or files.

  I have a Toshiba Equium L350 - 11 d

  As you have already said that the second partition contains the HDD Recovery folder if you would remove this partition you will not be able to create the recovery DVD and would not be able to recover the laptop HARD drive.

  Therefore, you must create the DVD before recovery would remove anything from the second partition on the HARD drive.

  After you create the DVD recovery successfully, you could remove the partition and could add the free space on the HARD disk on the first partition.
  This can be done on disk management!

  (Moved to repair and recovery)

  You do not have a format to get rid of your data.

  You do a format when you want to do a clean install of the operating system.

  As you all saved, I suggest that you continue on the new facility, then copy your data back.

• How to delete everything off of my hard drive?

  I have an old computer iMac (from 2008), and I would like to delete the contents of my hard drive. Is there a way to do this, and can it be done without deleting the operating system?

  It can be done easily without remove the operating system, but...

  Start now CMC - r & use utility disc here, CMD + r should have an option to reinstall the OS after clearing the startup disk.

  Or...

  Open system preferences > accounts, unlock it, click the "smaller", make a new admin account, log on & into the new account.

  In the same pref pane to highlight your old account, click on the less icon, then use to Secure Erase free space disk utility.

• Tecra A8-104: how to create a second partition on the HARD drive

  Hello.

  I had to use the recovery disk, and I deleted by mistake my (two) initials of the partitions on the HARD drive. : ((now, I have only one.

  Can someone tell me how I can fix this?
  I want 2 partitions, not one. x 10

  The Toshiba Recovery CD could create two partitions.
  The installer will ask where or how install the OS on the HARD drive.

  For example, the HARD disk supports 100GB. So you can choose the first 60 GB for installing the OS and the difference (40 GB) could be activated after the installation of the OS.

  This can be done in the management of the computer-> disk management.

• Can I format the HARD drive without losing data?

  Hi all
  I used the restore CD to solve a problem on my system (blue screen) and everything was formatted... including the partition where I had music etc...

  Is it possible to format my hard drive without losing the data on the partition?

  Hi guys

  To my knowledge it s any recovery procedure, you would use; in both cases the drive HARD will be formatted!
  Using the disc using the Toshiba HDD recovery procedure and recovery HARD drive will be formatted and you will lose the data on the second partition too.

  As far as I know both put the laptop and HARD drive on the same State as on the first day of purchase!

• How to switch my system on a larger hard drive without having to reinstall the OS and lose my data?

  replace the hard drive

  I'm looking to replace my hard drive but I need all the files it is about it, passing a small hard drive to a larger hard drive. My question is how can I save all the files on the disk and how can I get the operating system on the new hard drive without the original disk

  If your current system does not work, there is no need to bother with data backup, installation of applications and get a Windows XP installation CD (although regular backups are important to do as a general practice).

  Instead, clone your current hard drive to your new hard drive.  All you need is an external hard drive enclosure and disk cloning software.  In addition, once you have made sure that everything works correctly, put the old drive in the external box and use it for backups.

  Some of the cloning apps below are also disk 'images' (e.g. Acronis True Image).  A disk image can be compressed so that, for example 58 GB of data can produce a 40 GB image file.  Some of the apps, and of also can selectively backup specified files.

  The housings of external drives more to connect to a USB port.  Make sure just that buy you one with the good 'form factor' (portable = 2.5 inches, computer desktop/Tower = 3.5 inches) and internal drive connector.  Many but not all speakers can deal with SATA and PATA time.

  This example (for laptops) is not the less expensive external hard drive enclosure, but it's a decent case that can be used with either SATA or IDE (PATA) drives and comes with its own software package of cloning: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817155602

  It is a very good buy for a drive IDE (PATA) Office size: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817155602

  In general, Newegg is a good place for your search options by looking at the comments by users.

  If you have a Western Digital hard drive, you can get a version of Acronis True Image free of WD (http://support.wdc.com/product/downloaddetail.asp?swid=119) or you can get the software of cloning separately (this is not an exhaustive list and in no particular order, some are free, some not):

  EASEUS ToDo Backup
  Paragon Drive Copy or Partition Manager Personal
  Casper
  Norton Ghost

• then I just remove my hard drive without crashing the system

  I just back up files on the HARD drive. There is no system files or programs on it. Can I remove and replace it with a bigger memory HARD drive, without crash the system?

  Yes, you can remove the HARD drive without crashing the system by closing the PC, unplug the power supply from the socket and then remove the HARD drive.

  Please note that the physical HARD disk is different from scores.

  Hard physical HARD drive or disk drive is the hardware component for storage. The capacity varies.

  A HARD disk cannot be used directly when it is connected to a computer, that's why storage units with file tailored to the needs of the system to create, known as partitions.

  A partition can be a complete HDD (for example, if you have a physical HARD disk and you have only one partition C:\) or may be more than one partition of a physical HARD disk (for example, if you have a HARD physical disk and two or more than two partitions, such as C:\ and D:\).

  Therefore, you can check for the exact physical HDD and then remove it. To do this, you can go to the computer-> storage management. Check the link for more information:

  http://www.7tutorials.com/how-manage-your-disks-using-disk-management-utility

  This will show you the number of physical drives present in your PC and the partitions present in each HARD drive. So, once you confirm the HDD backup and partition (make sure that there no Windows installation, as says iFuton), you can shut down the PC, unplug the power supply and then remove the HARD drive.

  [Please note that you have nothing to do in the management of the computer, except to check the partitions and hard drives (denoted as disk 0 disk 1 and so on for disks hard physical as well as the corresponding scores appear accordingly)]

• How to make Vista partition on the HARD drive as first with recovery CD

  Hello

  I want to format and retrieve information from my 'Vista' (C: / /) partition, which is the first. But when I choose the option "Format and recover to a first partition on your hard disk (without RE) ' the computer began to recover in" Type of Partition: windows NT NTFS (ID: 07) "whose size is only 1.50 GB.

  In the middle of the process, it shows not 'enough space on a disk.

  Question: How to make a 'vista' first partition? What is 'the first partition' in the second formatting option and recover the system?
  Thank you for your answers

  Hello

  Sorry, but you will not be able to do. I know it's a bad situation but if you use the first option that the whole HARD disk will be formatted and C new partition created. Second option, that you can not use at all. I tested it with my Satellite A100.

  I called Toshiba and they said that Toshiba work on new recovery options and new notebooks will have the best recovery option. Something like old installation expert ghost mode.

  I know it's wrong, but unfortunately there is nothing to do.

• How to partition an external hard drive Seagate

  My old external HD Time Machine does not so I bought a 2 TB Seagate Backup more Portable Drive to replace it. It has been formatted for Windows but provided a configuration "NTFS_ Mac download for_ I ran. I'd like to partition the drive & use 1 TB for Time Machine.

  When I go into disk utility, I cannot and select the Seagate HD, the choice of the Partition is grey and not selectable.

  Any suggestion how to get this HD formatted correctly so that it is recognized in disk utility?

  I guess that the external hard drive is formatted NTFS, so disk utility does not have to perform all the tasks in this topic. It you can't format it on some Windows system with the FAT file system? Once the FAT is made, the Mac of THE it reformats with HFS. However if you want to do with the above partition size (1 TB HFS and 1 TB NTFS or FAT) then can try you with a disk management utility.
