expand the volume of original Windows disc C y

I have original lWin & and my drive C is full. I need to expand the volume of the E drive.

I tried the disk management, but I can only reduce. He can not open the link of the extension of the volume. What I would do.

Do I need to do a format and a recovery CD and reinstall or something else that is not harmful if you please.

Thank you very much

  • Expand the C partition in Windows Server (not not using diskpart)

    Hi Experts,

    I have an of Windows 2003 virtual machine that has a 12 GB C drive only. I need to decompress. I know that we can use diskpart to extend the drive, but the problem is here that the hard disk is divided into two partitions (C and D), because of which even if I increase the size under the ESX, I don't then expand in Windows using diskpart as it is said there are two partitions on the same disk. Someone help me!

    Please select another volume and try again.

    Hello!

    Normally, you will only be able to extend the partition that has free space immediately after it on the drive (and this is where the free space is added when you expand the virtual disk). So, if your disk layout is like this:

    DISC

    (block0 |) Partition1... | Partition2... | Free space.........................................| last block)

    you will only be able to extend Partition2

    This is why it is recommended to create a partition per virtual disk.

    In your case, I'd watch if it is possible to:

    (1) add another virtual disk to the virtual computer and create a partition (say f :)

    (2) move the data from the disk D: (Partition2) the newly created disk (if the existing D: holds a swap file, you need to create a swap file on the new drive, and then delete D: pagefile in computer properties > Advanced tab > performance settings > Advanced tab)

    (3) change the drive letters in the Disk Manager (change the drive letter to D: in a free r: one, for example, then change to your new drive d :) drive letter)

    (4) possibly restart the virtual machine to see if all the services are running as expected

    (5) use of the Disk Manager to delete the Partition2 (after this your vdisk that holds Partition1 should have lots of free space immediately after Partition1 and it is expandable)

    (6) use diskpart, extpart or any other utility to develop the Partition1

    (7) avoid creating multiple partitions on virtual disks in the future

    I hope this helps.

    kamran7446 wrote:

    Thanks for your reply. Yes, it's showing as unallocated, but because it's a system (C:\) drive I can't extend it by using Diskpart utility I can do for other readers.

    There are different ways to do this for Win 2003 (easy in 2008, has expanded in the GUI). For Windows 2003 you could close the virtual machine, get the VMDK on another Windows Server, use Diskpart or another tool to extend partition here - since it is not the system partition / boot. Then mount it in the original virtual machine.

    Official VMware training, they recommend a free tool from Dell, called extpart.exe. Simple tool command-line which allows to extend the system partition / boot when the virtual machine is running. Check it out and try if you wish.

    It is on the FTP of Dells site at ftp.dell.com/app, any logon not required.

  • How can I turn back on the volume on a Windows XP computer?

    Using a Windows XP computer, I sailed somewhere that had the ability to mute sounds. It is not the volume control, I checked to make sure that no sound is cut off or too low. I also tried to plug in my headphones to the other jacks, and I can still hear nothing.

    Unfortunately, nothing has worked, and the volume remains silent. I don't know how to get back to everything I clicked, too.

    Any suggestions are appreciated.

  • How to see the volume mounted in Windows Explorer?

    Hi all

    I am new bie to the VDDK stuff, you might find my pretty obvious question.

    I use the VXMnt API to mount the drive but I don't see that he set up in Windows Explorer.

    I am able to see the \\.\vstor2-mntapi10-shared-2CB22CB2007E00000000001000000\. In my opinion, this device comes only after successful mounting of the volume.

    I also called DoDOSDevice (...) to map this unit as a player.
    DoDOSDevice (...) returns successfully and creates drive, but I am not able to browse it from Windows Explorer.

    Here are the calls that I do:

    VixMntApi_Init (1, 0, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL)
    VixMntApi_OpenDisks (connection, DiskNames, numberOfDisks, VIXDISKLIB_FLAG_OPEN_READ_ONLY, & disksetHandle)

    VixMntApi_GetVolumeHandles (...)
    VixMntApi_MountVolume (...)
    VixMntApi_GetVolumeInfo (...)  -> Symboliclink used to DefineDOSDevice
    DoDeviceName (.)

    I changed \\.\vstor2-mntapi10-shared-2CB22CB2007E00000000001000000\
    TO
    "\DEVICE\vstor2-mntapi10-shared-2CB22CB2007E00000000001000000" - but without success
    "\\?\GLOBALROOT\\DEVICE\vstor2-mntapi10-shared-2CB22CB2007E00000000001000000" - without success.

    Please correct me where I'm wrong. If possible, share the sample code.

    Thank you

    A breakpoint will affect not to work. The program must be running to be able to serve Windows i/o requests. I have not seen the attached code, but you might need to restructure your program to continue to run as long as there are any mounted volumes.

    Sorry, I don't understand the statement "I'm running out of space in.
    my Windows fonts folder. "No file in Windows has a fixed size.
    Files automatically expand or contract if necessary to make it
    files you put in there. Just add more fonts and the file will grow as
    necessary to accommodate them.

    Thank you

    Hi, Dr.,

    Volumes that contain file system errors are known as Sales. To indicate that a file system problem has occurred and that the volume is dirty, Windows XP Professional displays a message similar to the following when you try to open, delete, or rename a file or folder by using Microsoft Windows Explorer or the command prompt:

    Autochk runs if the volume is marked as modified.

    If the file system has marked the volume as dirty, Autochk runs the Startup Repair process. Volumes are marked as dirty, when the file system detects an error on the volume. If Autochk detects a dirty volume, it provides a delay of 10 seconds, and then starts the repair process. If you cancel Autochk when a volume is dirty, Autochk tries to run again after a 10 second delay every time the computer is restarted.

    See Chkdsk for all the necessary explanations:

    http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb457122.aspx

    Run the Dell Diagnostics to check the drive failure.  If the disc is a failure, it must be replaced.

  • How to change the volume control no?

    How can I change the volume adjustment stage in windows? Now, it atjusts by 2 each time I press volume up or down in the keys on my keyboard (without driver) or turn the wheel mouse 1 step after clicking the volume icon - I would like to change this value to 5 or even 10, how can I do this? is there a key in the registry to do?

    Hello ssovets,

    I can increase or decrease its only by moving the mouse or scrolling. I suggest you decrease the sensitivity of your mouse and see if it makes a difference.

    The Volume control in Windows 7 is able to manage sound settings for each multimedia application installed on your PC from Windows XP, where you can only do a systemwide change which was the same for all applications.  To access the mixer Volume click the little volume icon in your taskbar. To make individual application settings, click theMixer link at the bottom of the icon of sound control.

    Please let us know if this helped.

  • Key and original Windows XP disc has activation with the re-installation problem

    My old machine running on Windows XP Professional exploded in April. I bought a new one and installed the original software (performed by a technician here in SA) disc.

    Microsoft raised a question on the authentic software and I provided all the originals to the Microsoft Help team, but my technician was to get Windows running again may 23 (after 8 days of waiting for a response from the Microsoft Help Center).

    Today the Windows operating system were asked again for activation - but it says that it is enabled.

    However I can not open a session.

    Is the product key: XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX

    The bar code on the label said hologram: 99994-625-347-755 b X 12-08297

    THE CASE WAS REFERENCE: 1177290811 and THE DATE was 22/23 May 2012.

    I was dealing with Jatin Gandhi, who has not responded to me since last week when I sent him an e-mail on the caveat on the question of the activation.

    I am running Windows XP because I have the drivers for instruments that are not upgraded to the other windows.

    Concerning

    Margie Hengstberger

    Hi Margie.

    Let me start by saying that is a bad idea to share your first and last name on a public forum. It is just as bad validate your product key. Fortunately, it has been blocked or deleted.

    Then, the majority of us who provide assistance here does not work for Microsoft. We are volunteers who give of our time and our knowledge. Therefore, your file number and the name of the person who helped you is of no consequence to us.

    With that, on the way, we will, if we can solve your problem. It is clear from your message and correct me if I'm wrong, that you have a Windows disk that was used to install Windows Xp on your current computer by some technicians where you live. Validation/activation issues have emerged, now, with the current computer. Apparently the technicians who installed Windows on your current computer gave you the Windows disc. Am I correct so far? If not, please tell me what I'm missing.

    In the interest of time assume that my interpretation of the scenario is correct. I would be very surprised if the disc you received is legitimate. It seems that the computer was in the period 30 trial when you received that would explain why you now get a request to activate Windows. The period seems to be very close to matching the scenario I described as well.

    Personally, if it was my computer and I had paid someone (the technicians who installed Windows) to the computer or to install Windows, I come back to that person and ask it be fixed. I think maybe it's where is the problem and who is responsible for this problem.

    For now, I will provide you with instructions to reset the trial period. However, the number of times that this is limited to four. Therefore, once the new trial has started, you will need to solve this problem one way or another, with technicians who have installed Windows on the computer.

    The trial of Activation reset:
    ------------------------------

    1 turn on your PC

    2 repeatedly press F8 and go to Safe Mode

    3. connect according to the normal
    (Note: administrator password is usually empty, or use the recovery password if CD does not know the password)

    4. leave the Office to fully charge (who answered "Yes" to continue mode without failure)
    (Note: this is just a long way to say go to Safe Mode)

    5. click on start - run

    6 type exactly: rundll32.exe syssetup, SetupOobeBnk (then click OK)
    (Note: a single space after 'rundll32.exe' also the Oo are two letter o in "oobe"; capital and the comma are important)

    7. wait a few seconds (although you won't see any change)

    8 restart your PC normally (start - stop - restart - Ok)
