• Vista SP2: create an additional partition / merge unallocated space

  I looked around the forums but I can't seem to find an appropriate response.

  I recently reinstalled an operating system on my computer (HARD drive Exchange).  This time, I decided to stay with the Vista original rather than go to the downgrade to XP, I first time round.

  -Online is my goal is to create a partition only for my data.

  I don't never partitioned a drive myself so far.  So far, I did not restore all the data.

  I found a strange configuration on the HARD disk, which is now 500 GB:

  C: "Vista" (of course the windows and other program files, the page file, etc.). About half of the total disk space, with a lot more free space.

  E: 'Data' ("primary partition"). About half of the disk space total but container recovery tools only 4 GB of occupation.

  A third * no * capacity volume 1.46 GB with 100% free space.  It is marked 'healthy (EISA) configuration.

  My plan had been to shrink C and E substantially, in particular E (up to about 6 GB, which gives 33% free space, since it is only recovery tools - on my machine Win 8 I have a recovery partition, but it is very small, as expected).

  I shrink both, but Vista only authorized maximum withdrawal of 50%.  I found myself with two spaces unallocated.  I formatted a (now called D) and now, it is marked 'in good condition (logical drive).  He is also NTFS.

  I've not yet formatted the other unallocated space.

  So, my questions:-

  1. What is this labeled 1.46 GB partition?  Why is that?  (Never seen something like that).

  2. why can I not shrink the existing partitions more?  C even still contains 69% free space.

  3. how to merge both new partitions?

  4. Why is the new partition D not a main drive and what question?  (I read somewhere in Vista you can have 3 primary disks.)  Is this what volume unlabelled 1.46 GB as a primary transmission?

  => I would like ideally to a single disk of data about 65 to 75% of my 500 GB HARD drive.  For now the D drive and newly formatted (68.1 GB) and the unallocated space (115.9 GB) add up to only 184 GB, significantly less than half.

  Thanks for any help.

  I'm no expert on the partitioning of the disks as each version of Windows introduced new types of structures of disk and partitions. Each of the different rules depending on the type and the version of Windows.

  I have three partitions. Data and one for Windows. One for beta versions of Windows. And one for the installation files (if it survives reformatting). I copy my data to another partition if resettlement (but it's been 6 years and 7 months I finally reinstalled Windows - what ordinary hassles are you going to for once an event of the Decade).

  Windows is designed to separate the data on a disk. Many of its features are designed to make several drives appear as a single drive.

  In the worst case scenario for your scenario, Windows will work, but your data is lost compared to the lost data, but nothing works. An improvement without consequence.

• I have 4 partitions! Do I need them all?

  I am really wanting to do a clean install of Xp Home

• WinRE has changed in the Configuration EISA Satellite X 200 - R21

  After you use the disk of recovring, the winRE partition changed in the EISA Configuration.
  How can I get the back winRE partition?

  If you're a Dutch doctor, dan like het antwoord in Nederlands (Bij voorbaat dank)

  Gr. JMMK

  Usually, the Toshiba Recovery CD format the whole HARD drive and erases the drive partitions HARD and game of the laptop back to factory settings.

  This means that your OS will be installed on the first partition and the WinRE will be created on the second hidden partition!

• 'No area of the HARD drive recovery' on my 350 d Satellite

  I think I might have messed up something, and I know that's not too big of a deal if I'm not joking my computer, but I just want to be sure. I think I deleted the recovery partition. I have four in my disk management tool.

  NO NAME (it's just blank here) - health (EISA Configuration)
  (D) - healthy Primary Partition (it had nothing in it, so I started using it for my music files)
  New - sound Volume (Logical Drive) - this is another that I formatted, never knew what was in it. I no longer use it, I removed the drive letter, and it does nothing.
  S3A6555D004 (c) - healthy (System, start, pagefile... etc)

  When I click on the recovery disk creator, I get this error:

  "No HDD Recovery area!
  The Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator cannot be launched. »

  Is there anything I can do to fix this? My laptop is a Satellite 350 d and I don't know what I can do to solve this problem.

  Thank you!

  You are right! You missed something. ;)
  There is no recovery partition. Laptop with factory settings comes with two partitions and recovery image is saved in a folder called HDDrecovery on the second partition. When the partition structure is changed, or if you deleted this file, you will not be able to create recovery DVDs.

  As you can see now you can not do this more. There is only one solution, visit https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx and order a.

• How to restore Vista on old Satellite P300?

  Sorry it's a long.

  I bought a new P70 to replace my old P300 that came with Vista and I now want to give it a new facility for the children to use. The problem is that I had partitioned the disk and had tested the betta and the version RC1 of Windows 7 before its release and he also had XP, now I can't get on the recovery drive holding the 0 key and did not have the repair option on the splash screen advanced when using the F12 key. I know that the Recovery partition is still there because I saw it when using a disk partitioning tool before you make changes and I'm deleting it.

  After what I read I think that drive hidden (EISA Configuration) that holds the BCD, stored options for the 0 key and the menu key F12. I made backup discs when I arrived at the origin of the laptop and checked well records, but when I went to use it, they have been declared as corrupt so the only other option I had was the images I made with another program but cannot boot from the disc I made and I guess it's because of SATA drivers Win 7 could not be started or until what I injected drivers, just do not remember how I got them in the disk imaging.

  So, if anyone knows where the option for the 0 key is stored, and I assume it's in the BCD himself, someone know how to recover it or re - write? The other option I can think is how the recovery partition is enabled and try to do otherwise. My oldest son has a more recent P300, is it possible to copy the BCD and its player hidden files to start mine? The other thing is when you restore from the recovery partition you need a Windows product key or is already stored on the recovery partition because I can never remember having seen one and I'm not one for my new P70.

  Any ideas?

  After these modifications and tests with your P300, you will not be able to use the HARD drive recovery facility more. This works if the laptop has only factory settings.

  Now, there's only one way to install the original use of Vista recovery disks. I m afraid you didn't create these disks, right?

  Anyway, Satellite P300 is well known to me and my brother has the same machine. We updated with new SSD and installed Win7 on it. It works like a rocket. So my advice to you is to install Win7 on this machine. All the necessary drivers, the tools and the utilities that you can find on the download page of Toshiba - http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp

  If you need help with it let me know.
  One more thing: the product key at the bottom belongs to the original version of Vista and it cannot be used for activation Win7.

• Questions about the discs of recovery and partitioning Satellite A200-QH0

  I bought a model of Satellite A200-QH0 in Australia and due to the lack of forums in our country, I would like to ask a few questions here if that's ok.

  The book contains 3 partitions - partition "EISA Configuration" of 1.6 GB, the great partition of the BONE and the recovery partition. So I did the recovery DVD? s using the Recovery Disc Creator tool, as we are not provided with a real disk. But I would like to know what will make these records? My questions:

  1. they really will return that disc hard back to the _exactly_ how he was including the partition layout and software pre-installed?
  2 will be the recovery DVD works even if the disk has been repartioned? I would like to divide the system partition to give space for the files of data etc. But this extra partition will stop the recovery procedure works correctly?

  Please understand that I'm not interested in reformatting the entire disk. I want to just split the partition from the OS. But in case I need to replace the disk in the future or something, I would like to know how to close to 'original', these disks will make me, no matter what I do on the disc?

  Thank you
  Dave

  Hello

  I m not 100% sure how recovery works on the Australian laptops computers Toshiba, but I presume that the restore CD contains the image of Toshiba with the operating system Windows, drivers, tools and utilities.
  I think that if you want to use the recovery CD then the whole HARD drive will be formatted and all partitions will be erased.

  I think that the recovery partition is not created using the recovery CD because the CD of restoration has already been created for the recovery partition is no longer necessary

• Tecra A9 - 12 H: format & reinstall Vista from recovery DVDs

  Hello

  I think formatting my Tecra A9 - 12H and relocation, but must first some questionas.

  (1) there is a hidden partition which Vista doesn't find - Disk manager says he's 1.46 GB EISA Configuration. -What it means, this partition must be left as it is and what its current usefulness?

  (2) made the Vista disc supplied with the machine to include all the necessary drivers, or do I have to download these before a format? For example, manuals says that I have to put the Intel Matrix Storage Manager on a floppy and it will tell Vista before installing. Is there something else I need to do before or after the installation like that?

  (3) what about the software like Office 2007 and SQL Server 2005 & Norton Internet Security? ID orriger they really want, but I'm not all utilities Toshiba AND WinDVD. How can I get these? I downloaded an update for WinDVD, but the download page, it is said that it is only an update - which needs a version already installed to work.

  (4) is there something special on the disk in Windows Vista - is it custom somehow by Toshiba, or is it just a standard disk?

  Thank you

  Iain

  Hello

  I will try my best and strive to answer your question ;)

  So let's talk number;

  (1) the Vista creates the hidden partition on the HARD drive. This hidden partition is necessary for WinRE.
  These are backups if something goes wrong with the operating system.

  (2) on the Toshiba Recovery CD, you will find the image of Toshiba. The image is a package. It contains the OS (Vista), drivers, tools and utilities.
  So if you want to use the recovery CD then everything will install on the HARD disk. You will receive the booklet with the original factory configuration.

  (3) I don't know exactly what software was delivered but using the recovery CD, you will get everything preinstalled additional applications.

  (4) the Toshiba Recovery CD is not the same as the original CD from MS Vista.
  As I said in the previous point, the restore CD contains an image.
  MS vista CD is only the OS without additional drivers, tools or utilities!

  See you soon

• Research to focus on partitioning HDD on L350-145

  I just bought a L350-145 with a 250 GB hard drive. Ex factory, the hard drive is partitioned into two - C: Vista (116 GB) & E: data (115 GB), both showing that primary partitions, and also a small EISA configuration partition at the front. I want to repartition the hard drive into smaller partitions for various reasons, one being to separate the data of the user of the data from system - to protect the data on the system (including the Toshiba Recovery files) supplied as much as anything and also to simplify my scheduled backup process.

  I can shrink the partition from Vista C: 63 GB (but not smaller, well) and create a logical volume 52GB in the ditch. I can also reduce the data E: partition to 57 GB but cannot create a new partition in the space - probably because it gives me the maximum of 3 main and an (implicitly created) extended partition on the drive.

  So my questions are,

  (1) the Toshiba Recovery files on the partition of E: Data is minimal. Why can I only reduce this 57 GB partition?

  (2) if I move the recovery Toshiba temporarily to C: Vista partition files, delete the data E: partition and re-create it to much more small (whether immediately after the partition C: Vista narrowed or the very end of the disc) and then to replace files on the E: re-created, partition recovery it still works?

  (3) is there no Vista or NTFS restrictions that would prevent me to the main partition of e: at the end of a 250 GB drive? I position it at the end by creating a simple intermediate volume of the appropriate length.

  (3) am I correct in thinking that I can then create a number of simple volumes (logical partitions) in space by reducing the simple volume inserted to free up space?

  (4) how dependent is the Toshiba recovery process on the location of the recovery files? Is it enough for these all just to be on the 3rd primary partition (including partition EISA 1), no matter where this partition and regardless of the presence of an intervener extended partition?

  (5) must this recovery partition have the letter E: or be labeled "Data". Can I go up to remove the drive letter to make it invisible to a Vista user?

  Thank you

  Hello

  I'll try to provide answers in shooting but clear. Before you do anything with partitions, you must create recovery DVDs. Did you create it again?

  1 I can't offer no answer to that. I assume you are using Vista options to change the existing partitions. You can use powerful tools like Partition Magic
  2. I'm sure that will work no more than 99%. Please don't change anything until you created the recovery DVDs.
  3. If I understand you just my answer is Yes. Delete the second partition, do a smaller and later with remaining space what you want

  I think I don't need to write separatle to 4 or 5. The fact is that the recovery DVD can be created if the laptop has only factory settings. With the settings, you can also install OS using F8 option.
  If you change nothing retrieve all options will be gone.

• You can delete a partition on Equium A200 without losing your OS?

  I have an A200 Equium with a partition on the disk hard drive is possible to delete the Partition without losing the Vista OS

  Can you please tell us what you mean exactly? What partition say you exactly?

  Please open computer management, and then click Disk Management. On the right side you will see the status of your HARD drive and all available partitions will be displayed here.

  At first he is shown with 1.46 GB of capacity (EISA Configuration) partition this partition belongs to Vista and please do not do something with it. There must be also the C for pre-installed Vista OS partition.

  Is there another partition (something like main D Partition)?

• Satellite A100 - 02 M - cannot find the correct SATA driver

  Hello

  I have an old laptop Toshiba Satellite running Vista Home Edition.
  I would like to downgrade this machine to work with the XP operating system.

  I have a real, but rather old, CD Windows XP Pro SP1. I also have XP Sp2 and SP3 downloads.
  I searched the web and understand that I need to download the final medium of Storage Manager XP9 Intel (Matrix)

  Package from your webpage.at http://pc-support.toshiba-europe.com/drivers/.
  I have visited this Web page and downloaded the XP drivers for the laptop.

  However, I am unable to find (or determine) the subfolder Chipset appropriate to the F6flpy directory, I have
  understanding would allow me to add a storage from a floppy driver.
  To be honest, I'm not sure how to proceed here!

  Details of the laptop: Satellite A100 - 02 M
  Model No. : PSAANE-04U03EEN
  Serial No.: 64Q 372 464

  Before I try to run the upgrade, I wanted to make sure that if everything goes wrong, I could go back to Vista.
  Therefore, before you start, I tried to run the program of re - install. I pressed F8 during startup, as
  educated and after entering username and password have reached the screen offering me options. I tried the "Restore to an earlier Date" option and that works well. However, when I try the "reinstall the OS", nothing happens.

  I checked the HD that is partitioned with the C partition and also the hidden partition, size 1.5 G labeled 'Simple Basic', 'in good condition (EISA Configuration)'; the other partition is labeled NTFS. As far as I can remember, when I asked John Lewis, when I bought the PC, they said that there is no backup discs.

  You have any suggestions.

  Thank you very much in advance for any help.

• Cannot find the partition recovery on the Satellite A200-1BP

  Hello

  First of all, I have a Vista Home Premium 1BP A200 and I lost the product recovery disc and I want to create one with "Recdisc.exe" product of Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator or Vista.

  They both failed because I didn't get a message "No disk HARD recovery Area!", then I looked in the "Disk management" section and could not find any partition without a name.

  There were two primary Partition which were 1.46 GB 'in good condition (EISA Configuration)"and my Vista (c).
  So, what should I do? Can I create a recovery partition?
  Or can I set the Recovery Disc Creator? (v. 5.0.0.5)

  PS: I got my computer several times with my CD, which probably used my recovery partition.
  Seriously, I'm out of ideas and I don't want to lose 50 dollars just to get another copy of disc PR.

  PS2: I used press '0' and 'F8' thing too, they no longer work.
  Is there a way I can restore without any disk?

  It seems that the recovery of HARD drive partition is missing
  The first 1.46 GB partition is automatically created by Vista and the C partition is the system partition, the partition of HARD drive recovery doesn't seem to be available

  > PS: I got my computer several times with my CD, which probably used my recovery partition.
  Retrieve you the Vista using the recovery disc or what drive did you use?

  If you have installed the system using Microsoft Vista disk then, it was a big mistake because it deleted the partition of HARD drive

  > Is there a way I can restore without any disk?
  Either you use a Vista MS disk and missing drivers, which you can download from the Toshiba page or you order the Toshiba Recovery disk don't see another solution

• Re: Partitioning is a problem with the Toshiba recovery system?

  I'm french, so don't be afraid of mistakes.

  I wonder if I can I repartition my HARD drive I want

  First, I explain what I realized with the FAQ:
  If Vista wouldn't boot, Toshiba Recovery in WinRE (eisa configuration) hidden partition offer we have to fix, and then use the DVD burn or HDDRecovery directory in E: to repair partition.

  My question is if I don't have the DVD (or I lost it):
  If I can I repartition my HARD drive (not the partition recovery, but expand the C: partition to reduce E :) partition without causing problems to recovery?)
  In other words the recovery to the boot partition will update the position of recovering files in E:
  And if it works, can I just copy - paste the E: c: HDDRecovery then E: while I format E:
  Thank you for your answers

  Juju313

  Hello!

  If you copy the folder of disk recovery HARD complete with all the files it should normally work, but I do not know Mr. I had never tried it.

  But if you have the Toshiba disk recovery is on the safe side. So, you can restore the factory settings whenever you want.

  Good bye

• Re: Update disk hard Equium A200-196 - hidden partition

  Having bought just my A200-196, I realize the original 80 GB hard drive will not be soon enough. I want to update before I add too much software. Question is what I do on the hidden partition "EISA Configuration". I guess if it is not present I won't be able to do a system restore. I don't know if I need to copy (clone) for the new 160 GB drive and if so what utility used to copy. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

  You are right. Vista operating system creates two partitions; one for the operating system and the other (hidden partition) for the restoration of the system.
  If you delete this partition, then you will not be able to use Vista's system restore feature
