How to change the partitions on the Satellite P870-026

Hello

does anyone know how to partition the HARD drive on a P870 Satellite with Windows 8 (if the material of the BONE).
I used the options in disk management. The problem is that I can't shrink less than about 450 GB lecteurC. It is a new laptop and features a 1 TB HDD and 50 GB used only at present.

I defragmented the HARD drive, but it made no difference.
Thank you

I presume you are aware that a "hidden file" is the reason why you can't resize.

This [http://www.partitionwizard.com/free-partition-manager.html] is supposed to do the job. Software free EASEUS ([http://www.easeus.com/partition-manager/]) can do. (I think you need to very careful to install the software. I believe that unless you read each screen and check / uncheck boxes carefully it will have changed your homescreen internet, search engine and installed more software).

BUT
Any root you choose, make sure you have prepared Windows etc. recovery disks so that you can restore your pc to a shipped State. Do some searching on Google on things like "install the bigger hard drive" "change the size of the partition during the installation of windows" "create a cd bootable/memory stick ' and the popular"migrates to ssd drive"and you will pick up a lot of advice. I don't know if the Toshiba recovery disks repartition a drive to match the original configuration.

  • How to change the Satellite L670D-103 using new SSD 80 GB HARD drive?

    Hello

    I have a Satellite L670D-103 with a 320 GB HARD drive running at 5400 RPM which is too slow for me.

    So I plan to change this factory by a new SSD HDD to increase the performance of the overall system :)

    But as the SSD are expensive, I have only a 80 GB SSD.

    I built the recovery on a USB media and I want to use it to restore my system to the new SSD (I previously did the space needed to ensure that all data can be stored on my new SSD 80 GB space; p)

    Retrieving SSD partitioning new procedure is done without error, but when copying image to restore data to freshly created the partition, one not enough space error stop the process!

    It seems that the recovery procedure is possible on a hard drive that is equal or superior to the original size of the disk (320 gb).

    So, how can I restore mysystem on my new SSD?

    Thank you
    Stéphane.

    > It seems that the recovery procedure is possible on a hard drive that is equal or superior to the original size of the disk (320 gb)

    To my knowledge, you have different recovery options:

    (* 1) * recovery of factory default software

    (a) recovery to out of box state
    (b) recovery without changing the HARD drive partitions
    (c) recovery of a custom size partition

    (* 2) * "erase the HARD drive.

    I think that if you choose factory default software recovery of-> recovery to out of box state then the recovery would create exactly the same size of partition on the new SSD which were available on the 320 GB HARD drive.
    I think this might be the reason why you have received this message.

    Perhaps you need to choose the 3rd option Recovery on a custom size partition

    What do you think?

  • Four questions about how to change the Satellite L650 - 1 M 0

    Hello

    The laptop Toshiba L650 - 1 M 0 is possible to add the Bluetooth?
    Currently, I don't have a WiFi card.

    I have a second question:
    The laptop Toshiba L650 - 1 M 0 is possible to replace the ports USB 2.0 to 3.0?

    And the third question:
    The laptop Toshiba L650 - 1 M 0 is possible to replace the matrix with a resolution of 1366 x 768 full HD (1920 x 1080) resolution?

    Most recent:
    The laptop Toshiba L650 - 1 M 0 is possible to replace the processor and graphics card?

    These questions are for the future. I mention these parts when you are already old and weak.

    Sorry for my bad English, but I used the Google Translator because I do not know how the English language. I only know the Polish ;)

    Please write without mistakes, because the Google translator will be able to translate for me.

    > Is that the laptop Toshiba L650 - 1 M 0 is possible to add the Bluetooth?

    I think it would be possible to upgrade with the combo Wifi/BT card.
    But I haven't found any info what WLan/BT cards combo would be compatible 100%.
    You should test

    > Laptop Toshiba L650 - 1 M 0 is possible to replace the ports USB 2.0 to 3.0?
    No, the USB ports are part of the motherboard.

    > Is that the laptop Toshiba L650 - 1 M 0 is possible to replace the matrix with a resolution of 1366 x 768 full HD (1920 x 1080) resolution?

    I guess it would be possible, but we must find a 15.6 screen that supports such a resolution.

    > Laptop Toshiba L650 - 1 M 0 is possible to replace the graphics card and processor?

    GPU is not extensible.
    In some cases its possible to upgrade the processor, but you will need to check which processors are supported by Mobile Intel HM55 Express Chipset
    But even if the chipset would be favourable to a new processor, there would be still pending regarding BIOS support.
    However, this upgrade took isn t supported by any laptop manufacturer, and I guess that its your own risk by doing this.

  • Re: How to change the Satellite L650-108 screen resolution greater than 1024 x 768

    You just bought a new 108 L650, but I cannot fix the upper to 1024 x 768 screen resolution.
    It should be 1366 x 768.

    Right-click on the desktop and choosing the resolution of the screen only gives you the opportunity to 800 x 600 or 1024 x 768. I can't find anyway to get it to the correct resolution.

    Help would be most appreciated.

    Before you continue just a matter of discussion:
    Let's say I help you with this and damage you something or broke a plastic part, what you will do in this case?
    I mean you probably know that you can get a few small important parts as separate components.

    By the way: this description may be provided in the manual. Disassembly of the laptop is authorized personal only. When you buy a new car it is no description how to disassemble the entire engine, right?

    By the way: Jeanine's right. See this page. There are many useful tips on laptop disassembly procedure.

    Please don t mix the portable computers internal monitor with external PC monitor.
    You won't find any control unit and on the external monitor that would help you to change the color.

    I put t know what your laptop smart chart uses but my laptop supports Intel graphics card and pre-installed (in Control Panel) Intel Graphics Media Accelerator provides a few color correction settings.
    The parameters are; color, gamma, brightness and contrast

    Here, you can set values between 0 and 100

    You can find properties of * Panel-> mouse-> device (last tab)-> settings button settings *.

    There are a few options. You must choose the option called Dual mode
