Full partition system

Windows 7 Home Premium, Service Pack 1

Intel Core 2 Duo E6850 @ 3.0 GHz CPU

RAM installed 8.0

64 bit

My operating system is installed in a 138 GB partition on a drive of 1 t. The rest of the disk is allocated as working space. I have also two 500 GB drives allocated as a RAID 1 t. all files to mu user are the RAID unit. As far as I know the only things that should be on my operating system disk (c :)) are the operating system and the program files and data. I use Acronis to back up my data to an external drive and when I make a backup of the system, it will also on an external drive.

My problem is that my system partition fills up. When I check the size of each folder in the score, it's no where near 138 GB. I perform a cleanup and can pick up a small amount of space, but not enough about to get out of danger.  I know that the operating system is no where near that big.

I read another post about similar problems and proposed solution seems to be; allocate more space. Yes, I could do it, but I don't think it's the right solution. Something is gobbling up space, but I can't understand that. Is there a tool I can use to understand what is happening and correct the problem?

Thank you

The f

Is the screen system restore in your cCleaner as this look?

Place the cursor on any item in the list, except for the one at the top of the list, and then click Remove.

You can also reduce the space allocated for restore to say 2%. Select Start, Control Panel, system, System Protection, place the cursor on C (under available drives), click on the Configure button, drag the cursor to the line beginning use Max to the left, click on apply and OK and OK.

  • Install Windows 7 on Dell laptop, error "Setup could not create a new partition system or locate an existing partition.

    I had Windows Vista ultimate on my Dell Studio laptop which consisted of 3 partitions (OS, recovery and OME).

    In order to complete a clean install, I deleted all partitions and create a new 1 and formatted it, but I am informed that the installation was unable to create a new partition system or locate an existing partition.

    I tried in IDE and ACHI, but neither enable Sir to go beyond that. I am booting from the CD with Windows 7.  If someone is able to help, they explain in layman's terms, as I am a relative novice.

    Thank you

    As the drive was provided by Dell, you need to talk with them.

    The disc could be waiting to see the things that you have deleted.

    It can also be a type of completely different facility than the normal installation of Microsoft discs.

    You would have more than likely been OK if you would leave the formatting alone and partitoning.

  • Setup could not create a new partition system

    Ok.  I just built a new rig.  ASUS P55 intel chipset mobo.  I have two WD Caviar Black hard drives and a RAID-1 array.

    I installed my OEM WIN-7-64 operating system several times.  Mostly because my WUSB54GC Linksys adapter wireless crashes my OS WIN because of a compatibility problem.

    Long story short: the last time my OS crashed he would not be stopped, kept grinding and grinding so I stopped it "hard."  Then when I tried to restart it kept a black window stall without launching.  So I decided to start over with a clean install.

    Big mistake!

    When I got to the place where you want to install? I had onlyl only one possibility, I created a RAID-1 array with 1 TB WD caviar drives two of the screen.  Then, I started to FORMAT it the disc for the drive I want to install WIN 7-64 on.  That was the big mistake.  Previously, I was able to install WIN 7 several times, but after formatting the HARD drive, I received the message "Setup could not create a new partition system.  I can't find the logs and I tried all of the suggestions that I have found here and does not.

    I have an ASUS P55-Deluxe mobo with two 1 to WD Caviar black HDs in a matrix RAID-1.

    I tried to reinstall WIN 7, with the HDD BIOS on IDE.  It worked once in what concerns the installation of the OS, but whenever I try to recreate the RAID array, I get the bloody message "Setup could not create a new partition system!

    I tried using partition of drive on BACK in but nothing works.

    Of course, here, someone has the same problem and has a solution.

    Help, please!

    Hi Steve,.

    On another forum, I read to remove the battery from the motherboard and wait 10 minutes before turning.  Not only did it clears the CMOS memory, but "remains".  After that, I was able to partition my RAID-1 disk, format the partition, load my drivers and install WIN 7.

    Thanks for the quick response!

  • How free space on the partition system reserved when the usual FSUTIL USN DELETEJOURNAL command does not work?

    When you try to make the system images, I found that the system reserved (100 MB) partition can be a problem if it has less than 50 MB of free space.  In my case it was after execution of FSUTIL USN DELETEJOURNAL/d/n and 34 MB free disk space is only 40 MB.  I also tried without the flag/n.

    I had just restored the system from an image so I felt comfortable to make new changes.  I deleted the fonts and directories of different language from the startup directory (the directory of fonts took about 10 MB).

    I see a file name {hex 64 bit I think} in the System Volume Information directory, which was 32MB in size.  I tried to remove it but no luck.

    After you remove the fonts, and the other languages, I had a lot of free space to perform the system image.  I'm not comfortable actually using this image, go ahead yet, but I'm looking for someone who might know what is and isn't OK to do with this partition.  I would have done it 150 MB when I installed everything first if I had an idea I was going to suffer like that on a meager 18 MB.

    Thank you.

    Hi friend

    usually the system restore the c: partition fair DVD formats, so if you have two separate partitions, the restore DVD should leave the D: partition intact.
    In your case I would choose point 6. (Operating system restore) that supposedly only restores the operating system, which means that it scratches the C: drive...

  • Satellite Pro U200 - recover all of the WinRE partition system

    Hello

    I have PLUA1E Satellite Pro U200 - 02802QS4 with Vista Business.
    HOWTO recover the entire system of the WinRE partition?

    It is really strange that you do not understand how it works with recovery and what is this partition WinRE (Windows Recovery Environment).

    One more time:
    Partition WinRE has nothing to do with installation of recovery and laptop factory settings.
    If you want to have BONES like the first day, you must install OS again. You can do this if you install recovery image designed Toshiba. I don't know if this image you got saved on DVD (disc facilities) or saved as image of HARD drive recovery.
    If you can tell me exactly what you have, I can explain how it works.

    WinRE partition is characteristic of Vista and Toshiba has nothing to do with it. So, if you want to know more about it using Google and Wikipedia. Maybe some Microsoft forum can help you about this.

  • I deleted the partition system, pure can not install Win 7 Pro because of the error message

    So, I tried to install Windows 10 on a friends old PC (acer aspire 5920g). I bought a new SSD and traded with the HARD disk, performed a clean install of win 10 and realized that I should return to Win 7 after that too many things were not working well. So, I formatted the disk (230 GB) and system reserved partition. (I took the SSD and put it in an external enclosure that I have connected to my PC to 10 Win.)
    I didn't know much about this system reserved partition but read that it didn't really need when you want to perform a clean installation of another OS. After the partition reserved for formatting system, he said 500 GB of unallocated space. I didn't quite understand that the reader is a 240 GB Sandisk SSD. I put the other (230GB) partition to active and primary with the management tool disc to win 10.
    I put in the Win 7 DVD and change the setting of this kind it would be DVD first the bios startup. However, the Win 7 installation dialog does not appear at all. Instead BACK gives me this message: 'an operating system not found. Try disconnecting all drives that do not contain an operating system. Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete to restart. »

    I tried different startup commands but did not get any result. What should I do next? How can I make a simple clean install of Windows 7 Pro (on the new SSD)?

    There are no problems reported by those who follow these steps for a Clean install Windows 10 Upgrade

    then you might want to try again and this time stick to these steps.

    Otherwise clean reinstall Windows 7 you can turn on with the installation media checked in the player by pressing F12 to Acer to get a Boot Menu, choose the bootable media, custom Setup, to the selection screen of disc to remove all partitions until the unallocated space, and then click next to leave automatic formatting and start the installation.  With the Installer do the partition creation and formatting avoid you unnecessary problems second guess the necessary system partitions and you can ignore all this.

    All the other things you did remove the HDD to format in another PC were unnecessary because that's all that is needed.  If other installation problems arise when it's properly you must follow these additional steps to fix failed Installation Windows 7 , that cover all possible problems.

  • Is it possible to change the drive letter or to hide the partition System Reserved (D :)?

    As you can change the drive letter, I would recommend that you do not have. The system partition reserved y at - it crashes or recovery.

  • ESXi6: error of storage when starting a Windows 7 image / deltadisks full file system

    Hi all

    I use an ESXi 6.0 with the latest patch on a HP ProLiant Microserver. Everything works perfectly except one Image of Windows 7 I have migrated from Microsoft Hyper-V.


    I had first consolidated the files on the disc in a single Image complete and then converted into a hard using WinImage.

    Now when I start the Image, Windows 7 does not start (starting Windows...) but then I get the error:


    Message der virtuellen Maschine

    Procedure der für die Datei ' / vmfs/devices/deltadisks/4 c 5... W7EN - s001.vmdk' fehgeschlagen ist (14 (wrong address)). DAS Dateisystem, dem sich die Fliegengitter ' / vmfs/devices/deltadisks/4 c 5... W7EN - s001.vmdk' is, ist voll. Wahlen Sie 'button.retry', um den procedure

    zu repeat. Wahlen Sie "button.abort", um die Sitzung zu

    The mentioned file exists, and the file system is obviously not complete. The error indicates filesystem, VMFS/devices/deltadisks/was full, but there are > 600 GB free.

    Any ideas what is happening here? What are these deltadisks?

    Please attach the file "W7EN.vmdk" - which contains the format of the virtual disk - to a response message.

    I think that we must do, is to use VMware Converter to convert the previously (with Winimage) converted to disk to ESXi like target. This will convert the spars (... s001.vmdk) disc format to support. If you have only the hard files, you can temporarily create a VMware Workstation (or reader) VM with the converted virtual disk attached and use it as a source for the converter.

  • Option "Reconfigure" in vCenter 4.1 to enlarge the size of the partition system on WIndows 2003

    I had just noticed this and I was wondering if I could use this option to expand the system (c) on a Windows 2003 Server partition.

    I know there are several ways to do this but, in the past, I was always a V2V, change the size of the C: volume during conversion and once checked... delete the original virtual machine.

    The "reconfigure" appears it can accomplish the same thing faster. Is this true?

    I know for the VM helper method but use the V2V method because it offers a simple uninstall. Had not used the GRET, but I'm not like all the other suggestions, it works fine. I think that it is not well supported by Microsoft.

    Glenn,

    There is nothing to sell in the System Builder Pack.

    It can ONLY be distributed with a fully assembled computer system.

    It must also be preinstalled on the hard drive of the computer system completely assembled, using the preinstallation OEM (OPK).

    Definitions:

    b. distribution and distribute means the point in time, when a client system leaves your control.

    Preinstallation of software

    1. for each unit of software in the Pack, you must pre-install a copy of the software on a client system before its distribution. If the software includes several language versions, you must only install one language.

    I note the last words to Adobe, because they have a such crazy Installer than some diligent cleanup of license agreements, speech recognition modules and the other language related stuff in the installation of Production Premium will result in about 2 000 deleted and 1 600 files + directories.

    I asked several times to clean the installer, so I do not get the license agreements in 42 different languages for each of the programs in the suite.

    This practice makes install once more, pulls down performance and fills the space on the disk, without any value.

    I don't understand that they are unable to follow Microsofts example as shown above.
