• How to extend a partition that cannot be moved or deleted.

  I'm looking to extend a hard disk partition which has the Xp os on it and I don't know how to extend, I can't upgrade the disk to dynamic disk.

  need help please.

  Why do you want to upgrade the disk to dynamic disk? In this case, you cannot extend a partition on a dynamic disk. But you can extend a partition on a basic disk.
  Depending on your XP operating system, I suggest you use the free partition manager - Partition Wizard which can resize/move partition without losing data and extend NTFS system partition without reboot.

• system partition reserves

  installed system partition is 100 MB. somehow, it's now 25 MB and near 100% complete. I tried to use disk management, but could not extend. Makes this partition self adjust? How can I extend the original 100 MB

  Hi sjjss3463,

  Your swap file is not stored on the system partition, so I wouldn't worry about it. Personally I wouldn't worry about the almost 100% of the partition of the system either!

• Snapshot before resizing the guest OS system partition, it will allow me to roll back if problems arise?

  I currently have an ESXi Server vsphere 4.0 with Windows 2003 Server comments on that operating system. And just to be clear, this virtual machine is a control area on the network.

  The problem I have is that the system partition (C drive on the guest operating system) is running out of room. I have plenty of room in the data store where the virtual machine, so I added 30 GB drive under disk space commissioning in additional virtual machine settings page. The configuration type is thick. So everything seems to work great so far, I see this space as unallocated within the guest OS.

  After some research, I found several tools that help me to inresizing the system partition to take advantage of the additional disk space. Specifically, I intend to use the dell (ExtPart) DiskExt utility to resize the partition in order to reduce downtime. Apparently, this tool works without restarting the Windows machine.

  My question is, if I make a snapshot before you try to resize the partition of guest operating system, this would allow me to go back and cancel any potential damage that resizing of disk can cause? I understand that I expected to be able to undo a change such as this with a snapshot, I just want to be 100% sure.

  And no, I'm not trying to use a snapshot as a substitute for a backup. I do a snapshot to reduce downtime in case of a problem.

  Any information on this would be highly appreciated.

  I guess I over thought the process a little too, so I tested.  Works like a charm.  extended to the HDD via the vSphere Client, created a snapshot, ran extpart extend drive C:, delete the snapshot.  VM, although not a controller domain and just a test VM, is functional and happy.

• Expand a virtual drive (System partition)

  What is the best way to increase the system partition?  I usually increase the hard drive in the VI client, use Knoppix to then extend the partition.  Is there a better way? or are there other methods preferred?

  My "perferred" method is to use the gparted livecd iso, mount iso through the v-cdrom.

  Quick and simple, never had a problem.  Of course I would never do it without knowing I had a good backup

• System partitions and upgrade to Windows 7, Linux

  Yesterday, I bought my first CV - ProBook 4515 s model with SLED 11 Linux preinstaled. Given that I'm not familiar with Linux systems first thing I did was to install Windows 7.

  My laptop came with 4 partitions that is formatted in a file system that Windows does not recognize. I'm guessing a partition for installing Linux, two of them are system (HP_TOOLS and HP_RECOVERY) partitions and the fourth was just an empty disk. So I formatted the fourth partition and installed Windows 7.

  The problem is now that I am out of system partitions, so can not access other software preinstaled and QuickLook. I tried a single partition format and rename it to HP_TOOLS and then tried to install QuickLook v. 3 but the facility reported that my system has not been supported? I don't want to mess with the other partitions in the fear that I could remove the BIOS, but want to sort this mess up and would certainly like to have some of the options that is is installed with the system.

  Any suggestions?

  I think that the HP_TOOLS and HP_RECOVERY partitions are formatted as ext2 or ext3 file system, Windows cannot read. It can only read NTFS and FAT32. There is no way I can think to convert the ext2\3 to NTFS without keeping the integrity of the system. In addition, the files are all intended for linux and not Windows. He has makes no sense to do that. That said, I'm not sure if your laptop has Windows 7 drivers now.

• names of system partition

  Can I reverse the sheet music for a clean install so that the partition/drive c:\ is NOT the system partition. On my Vaio, it is the partition musette and as everything by default installs on the C:\ drive, it has caused many space issues in spite of the process of installing programs on disk D:\. This is how the machine and it's very frustrating. None of my other computers have never been set up this way.

  If you you reinstall windows on some of the recoveries, there will be an option to change the size of the C: drive. Otherwise you can specify the programs to be installed on the D: drive. Or use a 3rd party partitioning program to change the size or combine the partitions.

• fragmentation of system partition

  system partition shows 14% fragmentation when optimized past to 7% and shows once again 14% when it is scanned into the computer hp laptop pavilion g6 2105tx please help!

  Hello

  The system partition contains the files and start the Windows recovery environment and it is perfectly normal for her to show some degree of fragmentation - that partition should not be défragmentée, because it can cause problems with the loading of Windows.

• Splitting the system partition?

  Hello

  I have two physical hard drives. Currently, each disk has a basic partition. The first detected disk has the C partition and the second disc has the partition (E) Windows XP is installed on E.

  I want to divide the C partition into two partitions. As far as I know, I have to delete the C partition and make two new partitions. I have all the data in c supported partition E if this isn't the problem. When I opened the disk management software, I realized the C partition is marked as a system partition and I can't remove it.

  Is there a way I can split this system partition?

  You need third party software. There are several choices, such as Partition Magic.

• You want to transfer my Win XP system on a new HARD drive. Are there problems with the copying of the system partition?

  Want to transfer all the information on my current including system partitions and data to a new HARD drive than my current HARD drive shows signs of debris. I suspect there are a few problems in the copy of the system partition as some files are not available for copying while windows is running?

  I advise to read the article on the copy of the hard drive in the first place, you can learn more. (:

• CHKDSK runs 5 steps for the system, 3 for the non-system partition partition

  Would be - to schedule chkdsk for the partition system using GUI by selecting two options available here
  It executes all 5 steps of verification of system files and disk.
  Would be - to plan an analysis of the non-system partition disk by setting the dirty bit (fsutil dirty) put...
  It runs only 3 floors of disk scan.

  Whence this difference?

  Fsutil allows you to set the 'dirty' bit for a NTFS disk, autochk performs an immediate chkdsk /f on that volume.  When the F switch is set, the activity of chkdsk is divided into three major passes: checking files, checking the index and security descriptors.

  If you use the R (chkdsk/r) switch, chkdsk performs twice more to look for bad sectors. During step 4, chkdsk checks all clusters in use; during step 5, chkdsk checks the unused beams.

  Given that you used the GUI instead of enter the chkdsk command in a command prompt window or in the run box, you must have checked the two boxes that appear under "to check disk options'-' automatically fix file system errors" and "will search for and attempt recovery of bad sectors.»

  Most of the time, one is not using the R switch or check the box to recover data from bad sectors because it can take a lot of time and (b) "recovered data" are usually not easily usable.
