  Hello syedshaul,

  To increase your C: partition, you need not 'allocated space' to the right of it. Take a look at this link for more information: http://www.petri.co.il/extend-disk-partition-vista-windows-server-2008.htm

• Satellite A200-1RK: Local Disk F is not available after the recovery process

  Can someone help me?

  I have a toshiba Satellite A200-1RK laptop.
  Usually when I click on where it says MY computer I get three things they are Vista C and dvd rw drive E and Local drive F.

  But after a virus on my laptop and the only way to get rid was a full recovery I did OK.
  But after that I noticed that the local disk F is no longer there when I click on my computer the other two are still there.

  Someone can help and can understand what I'm on everything

  Hello

  1) click on the start menu
  (2) right click on computer and click on Manage
  (3) open the category storage and click Disk Management. Here, you will find your partition (s) to your disk.
  I don't know what you have here exactly, but I guess your drive F is localized. Right-click on it, choose, make new partiton, and follow the steps. It will be published.

• Volume D: is dirty. Check Disk Local Disk d does not solve the problem

  Whenever I start my computer under WindowsXP SP3, chkdsk runs indicating that the D: Volume is dirty.  He noted no other problems.  I tried to run check disk Local Disk d with two checked options, but it does not solve the probem.  What should I try next?

  That is right.

  First of all, let us look at the ideas of the Microsoft support engineer:

  I would never not follow the suggestion of Microsoft Engineer in method 1.  This idea makes no sense.

  The Microsoft Support Engineer method 2 does not work for you (or most people), unless you have a XP installation CD bootable authentic with the same Service Pack as your installation.  In your case, you would need a true bootable XP with SP3 installation CD and most of the people do not have such an animal.  It is therefore extremely unlikely that will help you at all - and if your file system is damaged or dirty, I of course never suggests that in the first place until your file system is straightened.

  Volumes that contain file system errors is known as "Sales". When a volume is dirty, he has known file system errors, and you must run chkdsk on the volume to repair the problem.

  When XP starts, it automatically checks the on each volume's dirty bit (C, D, E, etc.), and if any volume is dirty, XP will automatically run chkdsk/p on next reboot on the volumes in an attempt to clear the dirty bit.  Which does not clear the bit of impurity or it may take several passes.

  If the volume dirty bit, one is set, this indicates that the file system may be in an inconsistent state. The dirty bit can be set because the volume is online and has some remarkable changes, because changes have been made to the volume and the computer shutdown until the changes have been committed to disk, or because corruption has been detected on the volume. If the dirty bit is set when the computer restarts, chkdsk runs to verify the consistency of the volume.

  Whenever you start a computer that is running one of the Windows XP operating system or the Windows Server 2003 family, autochk.exe is called by the kernel for all volumes to check if the volume dirty bit is set. If the dirty bit is set, autochk performs an immediate chkdsk /f on that volume. Chkdsk /f verifies file system integrity and attempts to fix any problems with the volume.

  A simple power interruption is something that could result in a disc was marked as dirty.  Have you had a power failure these days?

  You can query the dirty bit on a volume from the command prompt window.  Here's how:

  Click Start, run and enter in the box:

  cmd

  Click OK to open the command prompt window.

  For example, to query the bit of impurity on drive D, type:

  fsutil dirty query D:

  The sample output:
  Volume D: is dirty
  Volume D: is not dirty

  Type "exit" to close the command prompt window.

  You can not enter any command to clear the dirty bit - only chkdsk /r or chkdsk/p can clear the dirty bit.

  When chkdsk runs automatically restart either because XP thinks he needs to (perhaps your NTFS volume has been marked as dirty) or you decide to schedule the chkdsk with error correction during the next reboot, the results appear in the viewing Application event log.  You should look there for the chkdsk log to see what happened and no problems after running chkdsk.

  To view the logs in Event Viewer, click Start, settings, Control Panel, administrative tools, event viewer.

  A shortcut to the event viewer is to click on start, run and enter in the box:

  %SystemRoot%\system32\eventvwr.msc

  Click OK to launch the event viewer.

  Search the Application log for an event originally by Winlogon, something like:

  Event type: Information
  Event source: Winlogon
  Event category: no
  Event ID: 1001
  Date: 04/08/2010
  Time: 11:25:57
  Description:

  may cancel the disk check, but it is strongly recommended
  that you continue.

  Windows has finished checking your disk.
  Please wait while your computer restarts.

  The dirty bit fade not until chkdsk /r (or chkdsk/p) tracks clean when the system reboots (as in the example) or when you run chkdsk /r from the XP Recovery Console.

  Many times, the best remedy is to just run chkdsk /r from the XP Recovery Console so you can actually see what it does.  Sometimes, this also seems to be the only way to clear the dirty bit and this way you can see what he does.

  Note that you can not also question the bit of impurity of the Recovery Console and you can't turn off the bit of impurity to enter any command.

  If for some reason chkdsk will not erase the dirty, you can simply say XP never check the volume dirty bit, but who will not fix your fault of potentially hard drive, or it could be the drive just need to have chkdsk run on that (sometimes you need to run it more than once) or you will have to think about replacing the drive.

  If you have a genuine XP bootable installation CD, you can boot into XP from that (even a SP2) Recovery Console CD will work and run chkdsk /r manually from there and repeat until chkdsk /r is clean.

  If you have a genuine XP bootable installation CD, say so and I'll post instructions so you can make a CD of XP Recovery Console and how to run chkdsk from there.   There is no required XP media.

  I wonder why it is that I have never see an engineer Microsoft Support post instructions on how to make a bootable CD of XP (no XP media required) Recovery Console... probably because there is no KB article for them to post.

• ENVY of HP TouchSmart laptop 17: last version of SimplePass records is not some Web sites

  I'm troubleshooting an issue I have with the latest version of HP SimplePass (v. 8.01.27) 8.1 of Windows and Internet Explorer.

  For some websites after you have signed in, I don't get the prompt to save the password.   Is this normal behavior for the application of SimplePass?

  Can anyone confirm whether or not SimplePass is suppose to work on all the Web sites that require a login username and password?

  Welcome to the Community Forum of HP.

  Comment

  It's frustrating, isn't it?  One might think that there is a definitive answer to a simple inquiry.

  There may be such a response; I doubt that you will find it here.

  In particular, the 8 HP SimplePass serial code could be a simplified version of a program written by Softex (Omni) that is provided to the markets of the company.   This is a personal observation based on nothing more than a guess.

  Assuming for the moment that it is indeed the case, the full blown, Enterprise program (for which companies pay a lot of money) can indeed operate differently.  The algorithm used to detect Web site connections can be written differently and may be more sensitive to the many different methods that use some Web designers to integrate the username and passwords in a Web page.  It can even possible, given a fuller, more intellgent program, we could use an identification code of the user and the user name.

  More simply put: I guess HP SimplePass program version is "only so smart" and that the code used to read the opening of website code is not smart enough to read a limited number of methods of login Web page.  If the site departs outside these methods or if there are errors in the Web page, and then poof!  HP SimplePass fails to read the Web login page.

  Yet once, these statements are entirely based on conjecture and assumptions.

  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  You run series 8 HP SimplePass.

  AuthenTec program series 6 HP SimplePass former, either put to date, may be a little more robust that the newest program of round 8.  Although the series 6 is indeed 'old' code, it was written by an entirely different set of programmers - by another company - and it can react differently to the same websites.  6 HP SimplePass series works with Firefox and Internet Explorer.

  You can "Switch" series; You cannot "downgrade".  The programs are "hostile" to another.  You must remove the 8 series before installing the 6 series.

  It there is no guarantee, no matter.  Many computers, laptops or desktop computers, can run 8 series or series 6.  If yours is one of them, is something you can decide to try.  Joys and constraints to be your own boss and everything.

• Size of raw local disk

  I will implement an ESX environment shortly with 3 servers and a San iScsi for storage. Accordingly, what considerations to do with the configuration of the local server disk. We have up to 10 VM by Project Server and need to know how much physical disk space, server will be necessary? Is a 2 disk mirror or should I RAID. CPU are 2 dual core with 24GO by UC

  Thanks in advance

  If your storage all the vm of the images on the go the local disk subsystem does not need massive IOPS / s.     If I read the original post, it looks like your planning serve the SAN shared storage on the backend, which is where all the IOPS happen as it should.  The front-end server needs memory, so it's not thrash and 24 GB is a good start.  If that's the case then mirrors would be worth to write about the raid with parity prevents him from ever be used as swap.  RAID without parity these days is practically free, and still lets you get bars under him by interlacing.  And with the imprint of esx and esxi especially if small, using a pair of small capacity 2.5 "ssd in each host is always profitable and much more predictable than a pair spindles.  Just stay away from anything without cache on disk or with a jmicron controller
