Hard drive partitioned using its missing data after restarting the system, sharing and management of the computer

Hello

I have a Toshiba Satellite with Vista and since my laptop came with only a single 250 GB, i.e. C:\ partition I tried to partition more than I did the following, I had about 90 GB of data to start with which I transferred to a portable hard drive then:

Panel--> Admin Tools--> computer management--> management disk storage--> right click C:\ Drive and reduce volume--> it showed only 50 GB of space heat shrink and I created a new volume with this space (F:\ 50 GB)--> transferred all the files to the new 50 GB portable HD space F:\ and remaining 40 GB on the drive C:\

When I started my computer after a few hours, the new partition F:\ was missing! In addition, there was only the C:\ drive of origin with 40 GB data that I had transferred + 45 GB of data I think it was there previously because the installed files.

C:\ was so now 40 + 45 = 85 GB without a trace of the 50 GB of data on the new partition I created!

I had recovered my system to a day before before I did it, it could be the reason? Now, when I try to go to System Recovery it does me not an option for a restoration of watch system.

To be sure, I now have a backup of the 40 GB of data from the C: drive, but I lost the data of 50 GB of the new partition, and since I have not written new data on the drive is possible that it's still there?

When I try to search for some files I know research shows me the name of the file, but the file does not open, and the location of the file shows that it is not accessible.

Kindly advise me on what can be done given that 50 GB of data is really important.

Thank you

Go to disk management and open it in full screen and then press the PrtScr button.  Go to start / all programs / Accessories / Paint and open the program.  Go to Edition and click on paste.  Then go to file and click on save as and select a .jpg file type and call the disk management and save it to your desktop.

Then go to http://skydrive.live.com/ (you will have to perhaps sign up and maybe download some programs, but this will give you a free online place where you can store files for others.  Once the page to the top, click on add files and navigate to the file you just save it on your desktop and add it to one of the folders (I suggest the Public folder).  Once it clicked, and information about it will appear at the bottom right, including where exactly the file.  Copy this URL and include it in your next post.  I would like to see what looks like disk management without asking a thousand questions to describe everythhing for me.

If you did a restore of the system already on the previous day, there is probably no new restore points created since then, so there is no option to do a system restore.  In addition, a system restore would not solve this problem - this is way beyond its capabiliities.

Download the free EASUS Partition Manager: http://www.partition-tool.com/ and run it to scan your drive and see if it finds anything Disk Manager can not - it "s possible he can pick up our lost F:\ partition or unidentified space which could be this partition but not correctly identified.  In a same, t I would like to see if it detects anything useful (and it can also be useful the fixing of the problem if we can find it).  Moreover, the total space of the C:\ drive is now is what it was before you have shrunk or it it showing the size reduction that you can expect if the new volume had actually been created?  Let me know what you find if anything.

Right-click on your CD-ROM drive, and then click on change drive letter and paths.  Click on edit and then right click on the drop box for the available letters.  F shows as available or is missing in the list?  Leave it (don't change anything in reality - I just wanted to see if F has shown as available since if it was assigned (such as C: is assigned) should not be shown at the top on the list.)  I would like to know if he was there.

I hope this helps or at least gives us some clues on how to solve the problem (whatever it is).   Keep me informed.

Good luck!

  • Color calibration settings reset after restarting the computer

    Hello!
    I had a really hard time with my monitor calibration.
    I will try to describe my problem as simple as possible. I hope that someone will find a solution to this because I just couldn't.

    SYSTEM:
    ASUS N750JV, Intel Core i7, NVIDIA GeForce GT 750 M + Intel HD Graphics 4600 and, of course, Windows 8.

    PROBLEM:
    "Calibrate display" settings change/reset back from each time after restarting the laptop, shut down or put to sleep.

    DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM
    I just can't calibrate my screen. Everything I do just does not work.
    Calibrating monitor in Windows 8 works very well only during the time when I actually do
    But if I restart, stop, or put my laptop to sleep just goes back to normal.

    For example, as a first step, the screen of Loggin on Windows 8 when I start seems calibrated.
    but when I connect I wait 2 seconds or two and all my settings are changed in return.
    I have to recalibrate the screen again and again once and again and again...

    Swear to God that I tried all possible solutions to solve my problem and none of them worked.
    I have read a lot of forums, and I can't find the solution that actually works.
    I did the solution 'Safe mode' , the 'clean boot' solution, in 'color management', I changed the settings (in a way that people who said it should work).
    I've updated all my drivers (my system than the GeForce GT 750 M is up to date). I installed all available updates for Windows 8 (when I check updates, the system tells me there aren't everything and my system is also up-to-date).

    I guess there could be a problem with my graphics card. I know that everyone has had problems these last time with the new update for GeForce, but like I said before, if I have confidence in my laptop then my graphics card is up-to-date.

    It really bothers me. It's annoying and I'm frustrated by that. The worst is that I can't find a solution to this, so I'm really asking for help.
    Thank you!

    Original title: calibration unsolved display problem - Windows 8

    Adeline B, thank you very much for your answer.
    I'm sorry that I have not responded in such a long delay.

    Well, my problem has been resolved. I downloaded my GeForce graphics driver was last updated.
    Now everything works fine.

    • I know that this problem can be irritating. If anyone has the same issue so I recommend you (like everyone else) download of the updated driver for your graphics card.
    • If this does not work, try to calibrate your system using programs/software installed on your computer by your manufacturer. In my case it was splendid ASUS utility. I also used Intel® HD Graphics Control Panel.
    • Another thing is you may think that your system does not calibrate when it actually... made. So what you can do, it's just waiting for the start until your system is finally charge up. In my case, Windows 8 something takes about 10 to 12 seconds, until what it changes all the settings of ' my settings'.»» Then first Windows 8 loads up to original settings (and this is why you find that your screen is not calibrated) but then it loads the calibration settings you make before you restart and all is well.

    I know this sounds so easy is probably not solve anything, but when I had this problem with the calibration I was so irritated by it I wasn't noticing the changes! I'd just instantly to the desktop or control panel configuration, or web and try to solve the problem, without waiting for my system completely load all settings. But... If the wait does not then consult my previous statements.

    In fact, the problem persisted due to the fact that:

    1 'Windows Cache of police service' was running, so I disabled it.

    2. "Windows Presentation Foundation Font Cache 3.0.0.0" also ran, so I disabled too.

    After disabling these two services, then by restarting the PC, he was back to normal and show to the it's the best.

    Click Start, type "run" in the search box and click Run and enter "services.msc" and click ok. Once you've done that are looking for the two services above, located once double click on the first found, and in the drop-down list next to "Startup Type" choose "disabled", and then click on apply and then ok, do this for the second service also.

    Partitioning of a Windows 7 computer

    On a laptop Windows 7 HP, it is possible to partition the hard drive by using software like Partition Master, install XP and an earlier version of Office on the new partition? I know I can run Win7 XP mode, but many prefer a base XP environment. Yes, I have new copies unregistered XP and Office 2003.

    TIA,

    Besides Partition Master you can also use Windows 7 "Disk Managment" to shrink the partition of Windows 7, create a new partition of the space "unallocated", and then do a formatting NTFS "Full".

  • External hard drive no use / formatting / causing a lot of problems on Windows 8

    Hello, please someone help me! ??

    I just got a new Samsung M3 2 TB external hard drive and I tried running it on my laptop (Windows 8).

    I tried to partition it into two parts, but now everything goes terribly wrong.

    When I connect it via USB, the computer makes a sound of ping and it seems that 2 drives in my computer. He asks automatically format it... and when I start the formatting process (which takes hours)... in the end it gives me an error report saying "format could not be completed successfully."

    Whenever the HARD drive is connected I can not run the disk management tool, because it does not load. I even downloaded the partitioning of the internet tools, but when the HARD drive is connected those just freeze. When the HARD disk is not connected, disk management and all the partitioning tools work correctly.

    It's as if the HARD drive takes over from the computer in a way since I can't even make a stop down with it connected. There is no way that I can remove it without risk either. Also sometimes it freezes my computer and the screen is blank. So I have to force my PC off.

    It's really driving me crazy. Please can someone advise me on how to solve this problem.

    I don't have access to the other PC to see if it works well on them. I really need to get to this sorting.

    Hello Dezrtroze,

    Thanks for your reply, appreciate the time taken by us keep up to date on the State of the question.

    1. You are able to open the command prompt when the external HARD disk is connected?

    Keep the external hard drive connected and put the computer to boot, check if it makes a difference.

    Also, check if you are able to open command prompt when the device is connected, if so, to run the check suggested such disk in method 3 above.

    On addition to that, you can also run /Scan research on CFS to check any file system corruption and repair it if found any.

    The command sfc/scannow (System File Checker) analyses all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.

    Use the System File Checker tool to troubleshoot missing or corrupted system files.

  • Satellite P850 138 - a non-visible memory and no HARD drive partition

    Hello

    I recently bought a Satellite P850 138 and loading up, I noticed that when that card said she had 640Go hard drive but mine is only showing the 570 GB and off that 540 GB available. on other computers laptop toshiba Ive got theres usually a partition, so I guess this must be why theres missing 100 GB.

    But when I chose to view all folders of that backup partition has not always shown. Is it a fault with the laptop or is the partition hidden for just the idiots like me can not messing around with it?

    The laptop was one given to nine and it works fine just worried that if I need to format the laptop and it reboot patients have problems and im starting to think it might be the wrong decision when buying a used laptop.
    Help, please!

    > it had 640 GB hard drive, but mine shows only 570 GB

    The point is that your HARD drive has 3 partitions.
    (1) small hidden partition that contains the Windows 7 repair files
    (2) C partition for the system
    (3) D partition for files image of Toshiba

    So don t be worried, everything is ok.

  • Satellite P750 PSAY1A: how to create the recovery Toshiba on the new HARD drive partition

    Hello

    I have an old Toshiba Satellite P750 (PSAY1A-01Y022). I just upgraded my memory from 4 GB to 8 GB and am preparing to take my 500 GB HARD drive 1 TB. I had to order the disk online and wait to happen.

    I always try to understand how to create the arrival of my new HARD drive Toshiba Recovery Partition. I do the same thing for an old book, I handled based on something similar to it's original factory State.

    I have reflected on the recovery partition, but does not know how it was created. It is not NTFS. Does anyone have experience in the creation of a Toshiba Recovery on a new HARD drive Partition?

    And the help is very appreciated.

    Thanks and regards,
    Dinesh

    Recovery partition can be created when you use the original Toshiba Recovery disk and install recovery image. Before the partitions to boot OS install will be automatically created, recovery image copied on a recovery and then partition as last step recovery image installation starts.

    A sort of migration of files from one to the other HARD disk is not solution.

    Only for laptop with factory will work and the usable recovery partition.

  • Cannot take possession of the hard drive Partition

    I have a partition on my hard drive to store media. OS is XP home SP3. For some reason, I didn't have full access to certain folders on the partition so I tried to change the permissions for the entire score. I don't remember exactly what I did, but the main thing is that I have more access to the root of the partition. (I can always access all files using the file Explorer). I tried to appropriate the partition via the safe mode and the administrator account, but it won't allow me to take this way. I also tried to merge with the c drive partition using partition magic, but I had an error half way through the process. I suppose that the permissions would not happen. I read on the internet that "you can always take ownership' and I wonder what I'm doing wrong.

    Can someone help me?

    Manually apply permissions to a file or folder, follow these steps. Manually apply permissions, it's something that only advanced users should do because you could end up with unexpected results.

    1. right click on the file or folder and then clickProperties.

    2. click on the tab Security and then clickchange.

    3. If you want to set permissions for a user who is not listed undergroup or user names, click Add, type everyone in the name of the user or group, clickOK, select permissions and then click OK.
