How to divide two partitions on my HARD drive?

I have the original recovery DVD in my book and I don't know how to repartition my HARD drive.
I want to divide it into two scores (primary and extended?

Hello

If you want to create a second partition on the HARD drive I would really recommended using a 3rd party utility magically 8 partitions
This tool is amazing. You can create and manage partitions on the HARD disk while Windows is running.

But you can also create a partition by using the recovery CD.
In this case, you will need to boot from the CD recovery and under the installer or expert mode.
Simply type the first partition size and the restore CD will create a 1 partition on the HARD disk.
After installing the OS, go to disk management, and then you bring up the second partition.

PS: Using the recovery CD will erase the whole HARD drive! That's why I prefer the use of the PM8

  • How to make Vista partition on the HARD drive as first with recovery CD

    Hello

    I want to format and retrieve information from my 'Vista' (C: / /) partition, which is the first. But when I choose the option "Format and recover to a first partition on your hard disk (without RE) ' the computer began to recover in" Type of Partition: windows NT NTFS (ID: 07) "whose size is only 1.50 GB.

    In the middle of the process, it shows not 'enough space on a disk.

    Question: How to make a 'vista' first partition? What is 'the first partition' in the second formatting option and recover the system?
    Thank you for your answers

    Hello

    Sorry, but you will not be able to do. I know it's a bad situation but if you use the first option that the whole HARD disk will be formatted and C new partition created. Second option, that you can not use at all. I tested it with my Satellite A100.

    I called Toshiba and they said that Toshiba work on new recovery options and new notebooks will have the best recovery option. Something like old installation expert ghost mode.

    I know it's wrong, but unfortunately there is nothing to do.

  • How much better the partition of the HARD drive for dual boot: Windows 8 and Linux

    Hello

    I am a newbie in Windows 8, linux, Partition...

    I want to use my new laptop with windows 8 pre-installed on the following:

    Create a Dual Boot Windows 8 / Ubuntu
    Create on my drive C (single disk on my laptop):

    * a partition for the system
    * one for Windows 8
    * one for data and
    least for Ubuntu OS

    My goal is:

    -to install VmWare on Windows 8 and run Splat Checkpoint with virtual machines to make the FCTC laboratories.

    to install GNS3 on Ubuntu for CCNP Labs but with GNS3 to access the files in the data partition

    I have a Toshiba Satellite with 750 GB and 8 GB of RAM.

    According to you, what is the best size for my scores?
    Is there a better way to partition my C drive on my goal?

    Best regards

    I don't know if this is the right section, sorry for that. Feel free to move this thread in the appropriate section *.

    I think the size of partitions depends of the you want to use and install other software.
    So if you have a lot of software which runs under the Windows System I recommend to choose a larger size to win 8 partition.

    However, given that you have a 750 GB HARD drive, you could take 200GB for Win 8, 100 GB to Linux and the rest of the HARD drive size, that you can use for data.

    By the way: I found Nice YouTube video how to create a dual boot using 8 Win and Linux http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E_Yd2jK-7Jg

  • Tecra A8-104: how to create a second partition on the HARD drive

    Hello.

    I had to use the recovery disk, and I deleted by mistake my (two) initials of the partitions on the HARD drive. : ((now, I have only one.

    Can someone tell me how I can fix this?
    I want 2 partitions, not one. x 10

    The Toshiba Recovery CD could create two partitions.
    The installer will ask where or how install the OS on the HARD drive.

    For example, the HARD disk supports 100GB. So you can choose the first 60 GB for installing the OS and the difference (40 GB) could be activated after the installation of the OS.

    This can be done in the management of the computer-> disk management.

  • Equium L350 - 11 d - how do I delete the second partition on the HARD drive

    How can I delete the second partition that came with the laptop, so I can use the full capacity of computers HARD drive?

    I feel that this partition is their because I have not created a DVD of recovery he would remove the partition once I created the recovery DVDs.

    The score contains a folder of HARD disk RECOVERY and in the folder says do not delete or change this folder or files.

    I have a Toshiba Equium L350 - 11 d

    As you have already said that the second partition contains the HDD Recovery folder if you would remove this partition you will not be able to create the recovery DVD and would not be able to recover the laptop HARD drive.

    Therefore, you must create the DVD before recovery would remove anything from the second partition on the HARD drive.

    After you create the DVD recovery successfully, you could remove the partition and could add the free space on the HARD disk on the first partition.
    This can be done on disk management!

  • How to use a partition on a hard disk internal to the file history

    I try to use a partition on my hard drive for the file history. When I open the history file it says "no usable disk found. I allocated about 50 GB of the partition. The size of partition of the problem or do not like the internal disks for the windows backup? If the disk is too small if you please could you recommend a minimum size and if windows does not like the internal drives for backup could you please tell me how to solve this problem.

    Note:    I know it's a bad habit to save on the hard drive, the same that your files are on, but the point of this backup is not file security, more so I can go back to older versions of files such as windows 7 versions. I have an external hard drive dedicated with full backups, but it does not gives me the opportunity to return to an older version of a file at any time as the historical file is that I'm not wearing my backup drive wherever I go.

    Thanks in advance

    Try to make a file on your partition named FileHistory.  .   Right-click and select Properties.   Share it.

    1. with respect to the first question: your system files have been corrupted. Do a System Restore before the app was used.

    Try you "tune up", "maximize", "registry cleaners" or any what kind of app that promises to improve the performance of your PC somehow. None of them improve anything, often at the antipodes (as you discovered). Microsoft W7 already has all the apps. you need to keep your PC in tip-top condt. Try not to add anything.

    All these various named apps. are all 'snake oil' and very dangerous to use. However, you will find a lot of 'logic' online promo. material from "authoritarian" sites as to how will be beneficial for your PC. Not drawn in by these Advertorials :)

    2 the hidden partition is probably "restore to factory condt." partition rescue/recovery of the manufacturer of your computer. This can be used for the rescue of PC when things diabolically wrong with your operating system and cannot be set by any other means. You need an ISO image (clone) of the OS partition and MBR (master boot record) only, not the entire HARD drive.  Including the partition of relief are a very good idea but I'm not familiar with the software cloning you use.

  • Satellite A100-192: what I lose warranty if I create a partition on the HARD drive

    Hello everyone,

    I want to format my laptop (Toshiba Satellite A100-192) and 2 partitions. I've been using EMP cd + recovery CD, it's very simple, but I don't want to install all the programs of Toshiba. I want to install a Windows 'fresh '.

    I read all the messages on Toshiba Express media CD + recovery CD and xxxx on the HARD drive. I'm a bit confused. Many of you said: 'use only EMP recovery cd + CD' or ' do not xxxx 2 or more on your HARD drive - you can lose the warranty of your laptop.

    I have another CD with Windows XP Pro OEM. It is best to create partitions, install from that cd and after that to install the drivers from TOOLSCD?

    Of course, I don't want to lose my warranty, please tell me how it is better to do!

    Sincerely yours.
    Daniel

    Hello

    > Many of you said: 'use only EMP CD + recovery CD' or '' do not 2 or more partitions on your HARD drive.
    ' > you can lose the warranty of your laptop.

    Someone told you a big story :)

    It turns out; you do not lose the warranty after you create partitions on your HARD drive!
    Only if you open the laptop and will try to fix something by yourself, you will lose your warranty.

    Of course, you can use your fresh and original Windows operating system. After the installation of the operating system, you can install the drivers from the CD tools Toshiba or you're going to download it from the page of Toshiba.

    I'll try my best to make this as clear as possible, thank you for your time...

    Received my free copy of windows 7 home Premium

    Wanted a clean install (not an upgrade)

    Back up all the data and the programs that I installed

    During the installation of win 7, I deleted the recovery of the system partition and the 2nd partition of my HARD disk (has been labeled d, came that sort of lenovo factory, had 70 GB size I think)

    I thought that if I deleted the partition of the hard drive space would be added to the 1st partition and it did not

    Have materialized with the installation of win 7, and now I just have never found my C: and the GBs of the 2nd old partition so its as if I lowered my total HARD disk size

    How can I get my C: to have all of the 320 GB? Thanks for any advice!

    You can allocate the unused disk space as follows.

    Start > run > diskmgmt.msc

    Right-click on the Windows partition [should be C] and click on "expand". Extend partition as needed and enjoy.

    Hello

    D: is not a partition backup of your machine.

    Acer has a time set up their machines to the way yours is:

    They had a C: drive for the operating system, a drive D: for data (music, movies, etc you would like to register and a recovery partition 'hidden' to reinstall the operating system and to make the recovery discs to do the same thing.)

    You can merge C: and D: as a whole, BUT save all data on D: first because it will be deleted when you merge.
