• Impossible to delete the partitions or format C

  I have a mobile shadow Smart Power (a special Aldi 2004), which comes with no hidden restore disc, but it has a much utility and disk etc. drive OEM drive.  I need to reformat C and reinstall XP Home... nothing seems to work - after surfing several hours for a reply and try to all the ones I found!  I can not get an option to format using disk management, because it is grayed out, and if I use the disc provided as a boot disk, I can't delete the partition as it says that it is in use / mounted.  Can anyone help please... as I suspect that the XP disc resembles C and just by looking at him, he believes that it is in use, so it will not let me delete the partition or format C.  I don't know how to get around this problem with the discs that I have... and experience tells me that shadow are desperate for assistance to the user, so there is probably no point of contact with them.

  All I can understand about shadow is that it was an Austrian company which has since been bought by a Taiwanese company and has almost no information available online support (although there seems to be quite expensive telephone support lines).

  You cannot remove or format the system partition (the one where Windows) of Windows.  This is why there are bootable CD installation/restoration of the system, the idea being that if you run with an operating system on the CD, you can do what you like on the hard drive.

  Your drive "OEM", is supposed to be a system restore disk or just a collection of software and drivers?

  If it is a restore disk, when you start from it, it should just restore the computer to its original state, or at least give you an option to do so.

  Can you describe the screens that appear when you start from your OEM drive?

• Deleted the partition using a portable drive now computer part starts, it says: no media present

  Original title: Start-up aid

  Well, then I got the bluescreen 0cx000021c yesterday and got during windows startup. I think it is a blue screen of material, if I'm wrong?

  Which is probably my HARD drive that I got a response from here somewhere, and the guy said it was probably a faulty HARD drive.

  I had to get my data from the school of my pc, so I can send my laptop MSI for repairs. I could not find a way to copy my D drive on my drive externel but tried Diskpart to clean everything first, and maybe put it on the C drive D drive, hoping that I could do a clean install without losing the files of my D drive.

  Now to the problem. I feel really stupid to do so, especially to be a 1st year in a COMPUTER at the College course. I use Diskpart and I accidentally this is cleaned up, and I cleaned my table of partition or something like that. So now all my partitions are parties, I have read that maybe my files still on my laptop just my scores have disappeared.

  Now I can't get to the CMD, at the start of my laptop, it says there is no media and then goes to BIOS. I tried a cd Hirensboot, but he repeats to me without media present I also put on Cd/DVD boot first priority

  Hi TonSchepers,

  You deleted the partition, it would be extremely difficult to recover data. You may need to use some third-party data recovery software to get your data.

  If your computer is under warranty, please consider the manufacturer. If this is not the case, try these suggestions.

  Remove the hard drive of this computer and connect it to a working computer. Check if it detects the hard drive. If it detects, see if you can back up your data on this computer.

  Try to format the hard drive using another computer and connect it to your computer and check if detects also in the computer.

• Cannot delete the partition with windows xp a clean installation

  Hello
  Thanks in advance for any help.
  I'm doing a clean install of windows xp pro. When I get to the screen to delete the partition by pressing the d nothing happens. I'm sure start out of the cd. First attempt to do a fresh install. Any help would be appreciated

  Hi rlsajs,

  Is it a custom computer or pre-built as a HP, Dell, etc. ?
  Is your USB keyboard? If so, you may need to enable "bios powered" usb in the BIOS of your computer.
  By default, many computers are set to "Operating System" controlled USB which means that your keyboard does not work entirely until Windows has started, and you need it to work before Windows started as you go through the Setup for a new installation.
  Hope this helps and answer back with questions. If you need help getting into the BIOS of your system you will need to contact the manufacturer of your computer.
  BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can resolved e. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

• Delete the partition created in reformatting/reinstall for A50

  Then when I got my Toshiba Satellite A50, he had no partition that I knew of, just a drive C with XP installed on it. But the disk that it came with to reformat the hard drive and reinstall XP is creating a partition!

  So it's not the original or set up installation I've had... I have an external hard drive, I don't want a partition.

  How can I delete the partition? I'm ready to completely reformat the entire hard drive again, but if so, how do I that?

  The Toshiba CD doesn't really give me a prompt to go reformatting the hard drive me...

  The other annoying, that of my C drive is NTFS, but the disc creates a drive NTFS and FAT32 other... too... which is really scary, is when the Toshiba disk loads, it says "loading Windows 98"... to my understanding of my laptop NEVER had 98 on it... I pray that this is not a 98 - xp upgrade. It seems that someone gave me the wrong drive with my laptop computer?

  Or am I worrying over nothing?

  Hello Lou

  Believe me worry for nothing! Please don t be confused about W98 loading message. The unit starts in DOS mode and it's the same as on W98.

  Now step by step explanation: I did the procedure of recovery many times and have a little experience with it.

  When starts, CD recovery menu displays with two options: modes of STANDARD facilities and EXPERT. STANDARD mode simply erase the whole HARD drive and creates one partition (the whole HARD disk capacity) for the installation of the OS.
  EXPERT mode should be used if you want to install the operating system on already created partition or if you want to create a new partition for the installation of the OS. Note You can create only the first partition it (C :) and you can not edit already created the partition.)

  In my opinion, it is always good to have two partitions, one for the operating system and installation and a second for recording data. You might not always drive external HARD with you. If something is wrong at any time, you can install the OS on the first partition without losing the data stored on the other.

  Anyway, to start the recovery procedure and choose the recovery STANDARD (option 1) procedure. The whole HARD drive will be formatted and Os will be installed on a partition.

  Bye and if you have any other questions please write again.

• DELETE THE PARTITION

  I've got 2 hardrives installed on my HP Pavilion DV8T. I'm trying to reformat the second drive, which is an old hard drive from an old HP. As such, it has two partitions. I managed to format the partitions, but I am trying to delete the partition smaller recovery and for some reason it wont let me. I tried Paragon Partition Manager, and it keeps telling me to reboot to complete the operation, my pc restarts and crashes on a screen with a bunch of code that I don't recognize. Can someone tell me exactly how to delete this partition?

  And why HP makes so friggin hard to access the system you paid the money? I know what I'm doing with my computer in general. I am so sick and tired of having to work around the system locks because HP has decided to stop me from having full access and control over my hardware and software. It's extremely aggravating.

  No, I tried to delete the partition of secondary recovery off HD 1, leaving only partition with all the readers of free space it contains.  One of my friends showed me that I had to use the windows itself, Disk Manager program because Windows 7 was blocking Paragon Partition Manager to access the drive. Once, I deleted the partition with program management built-in drive to W7, the free space immediately added to the other partition on the disk.

  Simply go to control panel and use the built-in in Windows 7 itself drive management utility. I formatted both partitions on HD 1 and then deleted the second smaller partition. This free space of the partitions has been added to the main partition and HD works correctly since.

• OK to delete the Partition of "Recovery" on XPS 8700

  XPX 8700

  Win 7 64 bit

  RE: Remove the Partition "Recovery."

  I use no Dell DataSafe. There is a partition "recovery" on the boot drive takes about 8% of disk space total and this 'recovery' of 8% partition, about 40% of the space is used. The "recovery" partition has a drive letter assigned to it.

  I want to reclaim that space. I guess that the "recovery" partition is part of the Dell DataSafe. I would like to uninstall Dell DataSafe and delete the "recovery" partition and add that disk space.

  Question: Can I uninstall Dell DataSafe and delete the partition "recovery." I've never used Dell DataSafe. Can someone tell me which takes 40% of the score "recovery"?

  Thank you

• Problem with hard drive 3 TB and the need to delete the system partition reserved

  I am running Windows 7, 64-bit version.  have another hard disk of 500 GB and I bought a 3 TB hard drive and installed windows 7 on it (3 TB) fine.  But to finish install and found 3 TB hard drive showed only 2 TB of usable disk space.  does a job at home and found that before 2011, the bios of the motherboard can only support HD up to 2 TB, and in order to use all 3 to, I need to convert to GPT disk.  To do this, I need to remove the volume, but since I installed windows 7 more early, he created a score 'system reserved', I can't delete or edit, or format.  All boards to complete this (converted to GPT disk) so I can use all 3 TB of HD?   Now, I re installed windows 7 on my other drive.

  Any advice on how to convert to GPT disk without deleting the system reserved partition?

  Thank you all... Finally figure it out.  Just in case where any who need it going forward... and

  That's what I did

  Step 1.  start by using the windows installation disc 7, press SHIFT + F10 when the language pop up page, use the diskpart... command to remove the system reserved partition. and turn off the computer.

  Step 2.  Open the computer case and unplug the 3 TB hd of the motherboard by unplug the SATA her cable.

  Step 3.  Re-install windows 7, turn off the computer when done

  Step 4.  re - connect the 3 TB - DD and closed the case and power on the computer

  Step 5.  Disk management can use GPT disk.

  A lot of work, but finally did.
