• How to merge the C drive and unallocated space

  I recently had a new 1 TB HDD in my count and then I had to download Windows XP Pro as my old hard drive crashed. In under disk 0 disk management, I (c :)) 128.00 GB and to the right, I have not allocated 803,52 GB.)  I'm not sure how it happened.  I guess that something I had put on Windows XP Pro.

  My question is that I can combine the two together.  The C drive and the unallocated space.  There are no other disks shown but C.  Thanks Reta

  It happened because you have installed a copy of "gold" Windows XP, (an original version without a service pack).  Released as Windows XP did not support 48-bit LBA so it truncated the disc to 137 GB (128 GB binary) and the rest of the unallocated disk, slipstreaming of service packs for the Windows XP CD would have allowed windows to correctly see the entire disk.  The only way to solve this problem now is to use a third-party partititionneur.  You can use the free trial version of BootItNG to merge partitions.  You do not need to install BootItNG, when you get to the Setup screen simply cancel the installation and you will enter the maintenance mode where you will be able to partition work.

• How to extend my C drive volume in Windows 7, so that the disc I want to merge in drive C is not adjacent to the C drive, please help

  How to extend my C drive volume in Windows 7, so that the disc I want to merge in drive C is not adjacent to the C drive, please help

  Jackin salvation,

  Welcome to the Microsoft Answers community.

  When resizing of volumes in Windows7, you must be aware of the following criteria:

  • Only you have the possibility to reduce or enlarge NTFS or RAW (unformatted) partition using Windows 7 tools.
  • When you shrink a partition, files not movable as a page file or a shadow storage area are not resettled. This is why you cannot reduce the size of the Windows beyond volume where these types of files. If you need to reduce the volume, you will need to remove, move or delete the page file or the shadow first storage area, and then reduce the volume and then add the page file or shadow storage on the disk area.
  • If enough bad clusters are found on the disk partition will not shrink.
  • You must be logged on to an administrator account in order to resize Windows Volumes in windows 7.
  
   

  Windows 7 Partitions or Volumes of shrinkage

  This section shows must shrink a Windows volume or partition. To do this, we must open the Windows 7 disk management tool. The following steps will guide you in this process.

  1. Click the button on the Start Menu in the bottom left of your desktop , and then click the Control Panel menu option.

  2. When Control Panel opens, click on system and Maintenance category.

  3. When opens in system and Maintenance category, scroll down and click on Administrative Tools.

  4. Double-click the computer management icon. The console of the computer management will now open. Down, you will see a category called storage and under this category will be the disk management icon, as shown below.

     
  5. Click on the disk management icon, and you will now be in the disk management utility as shown in the figure below. This utility you can see all the partitions on your computer and format, delete, create, develop or resize them. For this tutorial, I'm going to resize the partition E: of 16 GB so that when completed, there is a 8 GB partition and provides another 8 GB of free space I can use for other purposes.

     
  6. To shrink the partition, just click with the right button on the partition that you want to work with and select reduce . In this example, I click right on the E: partition and in the menu that appears, I select shrink.

  7. A screen similar to the one below appears. This screen indicates the size of the current partition you, how you can reduce it to a field where you can enter a specific amount to reduce, and then how big partition will be once it shrinks. By windows 7 default enters the maximum amount that you can reduce the volume, but if you want to change this amount, do so by entering the amount in MB in the enter the amount of space to shrink in MB: field. When you are satisfied with how windows 7 will shrink the partition, click the minimize button.

     
  8. Once windows 7 is complete decreases the volume, you will be in the disk management screen, but now the partition size will be the size you requested as shown below.
  

  Now that you have reduced the size of your volume of Windows, you can close the computer management console.

  You have now finished reducing your score and you have the extra space available for use as required.

  Windows 7 Partitions or Volumes extension

  This section shows that you must extend a Windows volume. To do this, we must open the tool of disk management where we can resize our volumes. The following steps will guide you in this process.

  1. Click the button on the Start Menu in the bottom left of your desktop, and then click the Control Panel menu option.

  2. When Control Panel opens, click on system and Maintenance category.

  3. When opens in system and Maintenance category, scroll down and click on Administrative Tools.

  4. Double-click the computer management icon. The computer management console will now open. Down, you will see a category called storage and under this category will be the disk management icon, as shown below.

     
  5. Click on the disk management icon, and you will now be in the disk management utility as shown in the figure below. This utility you can see all the partitions on your computer and format, delete, create, develop or resize them. For this tutorial, I'll extend the E: partition so that it uses the rest of the available space on the disc 1.
     
     
      
  6. To extend the partition, he just click right-click on the partition that you want to work with, and then select the Extend option. In this example, I click right on the E: partition and in the menu that appears, select Extend.

  7. A wizard appears as shown below. Press the Next button to continue.

     
  8. A new screen, shown below, is displayed allowing you to select the free space available on your local hard disks that you can use to extend the space of the selected partition. It is important to note that Windows 7 allows you to extend a volume using free space on the same drive as well as the other disks. I strongly suggest that you do not extend a volume on a disk with free space of the other. It is because if one of the disks has a hardware failure, then all data on this volume will be removed. Rather just to use the free space on a drive that contains the volume you extend
     .

     

     As discussed in step 5, for this tutorial we are going to extend my 8 GB partition (drive E :) to the total size of disk 1 using all the available space. As disk 1 is only available free space on my computer, windows 7 automatically select as shown in the image above and use the maximum amount available to extend the partition. If there were other drives with free space that they have shown during the selection available . If you want to extend the volume to a lower amount you can change in the Select the amount of space in MB: field. In the contrary case, press us the button Next .

  9. You will be now be presented with a confirmation screen. If you are sure you want to extend the volume, press the Finish button. Otherwise, press the back button to make changes or the Cancel button to cancel this operation.

  10. Once Windows 7 completed to extend the volume, you will be on the screen disk management, where you can see the amount that you have extended with the new size. An example of this is shown below.
  

  At this point, you can close the Management window of the computer that your task is completed.

  Hope this information is useful.

• How to merge the C drive to the D drive

  My local C drive has 100 GB on it. I have another volume of disk D with gb 122 on it.

  Now, I know that this question has been asked many times before, but I am still very confused with how you can actually merge the two into a main C drive.

  I find it very strange that ASUS (my computer) performs the main drive that is smaller than the other partition.

  All advice is appreciated.

  Thank you.

• Logical disk management does not recognize a slave drive

  I installed an internal HD as a slave. The BIOS sees the drive, Western Digital Lifeguard sees the drive (it checks OK) with the appropriate drive letter, PMagic sees the drive before starting, but the logical disk manager does not recognize the drive or the drive letter.

  Using Windows XP, SP3 with latest updates

  Hello

  1. The hard drive is recognized in another computer?

  If this isn't the case, then the problem could be the hard drive itself. If he is found, then the problem is in your computer. In this case, run the diskpart.exe utility.

  Use the list partition command and see if the partition is detected. If so, then I suggest you to format the drive in diskpart.

  However, take a return of all data on the hard drive before the format by plugging it into another computer. Help with backup data, see

  Backup: what, how, where

  http://www.Microsoft.com/protect/data/backup/about.aspx

  To use the Diskpart.exe utility, follow these steps:

  1. type diskpartand press ENTER to open the diskpart tool.

  2. type list diskand press ENTER. A list of available hard disks.

  3. type select disk =[n]

  n s Specifies the number of disc the disc to receive the focus.

  4. type list partition

  This command displays the partitions listed in the table to partition on the current drive.
  5. type select partition =[d]

  This command selects the specified partition and gives it the focus.

   d s Specifies the drive letter or mount point path of the partition to receive the focus.

  6. type format drive: / FS: NTFS/Quick

  For more information about commands, see

  A Description of the Diskpart command-line utility

  Now you should be able to see the slave drive in Solution Explorer.

• In disk management, it shows only a single hard drive and it's C, but it lists the size than what my old drive was that I took out

  I got a new hard drive in my computer and the old a subscribed.  I then had to reinstall Windows XP Pro.  In disk management, it shows only a single hard drive and it's C, but it lists the size than what my old drive was that I took out.  The new shows of unallocated hard disk without a drive letter and has a black bar above it. How do I show my new hard drive that is 1 TB instead of one that was a 250 GB is not yet in my computer.

  Hi Reta,

  ·         The drive appears like 250 GB even if it's a terabyte?

  ·         Is the remaining 750Go showing as unallocated disk space?

  If this is the case, you can refer to this article on how to use disk management in Windows XP:

  You can follow the directions to extend a Simple Volume so that your 250 GB turns into a single terabyte.

• To install the new eSATA / SATA to USB 2.0 hard drive in an external enclosure but the computer does not recognize the drive in disk management

  I have an old computer with installed Microsoft Windows XP SP2 and 3.  I bought a new hard drive and also a new external hard drive for her case.  I have correctly installed the hard drive inside the enclosure, and I think that I have installed correctly (in the motherboard SATA port) eSATA port, according to the manufacturer's instructions.  I plugged everything... first eSATA, then power and power switch.  I restarted the computer, and I chose to analyze disks in disk management.  However, the new drive is not recognized.  The SATA port on the motherboard could not work or did I buy the bad, perhaps, hard drive enclosure for my system?  Or something related to the software?  Thank you.

  Hi Donnadream,

  Connect the hard drive to another port and check if that makes a difference

  Step 1: You can follow the steps mentioned in the article below, which deals with a similar question

  Important This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

  Step 2: Download and install the latest drivers from the chipset of the computer or the manufacturer of the motherboard and check

  Step 3: Hard disk can be turned off in the BIOS; You may want to enable

  Important: Change BIOS (Basic input output system) /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 be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

  If the problem persists, it is a hardware problem, contact the manufacturer of the hard drive for a more specialized help

• Disk Management screen 'Letters to lead change' grayed out for 2nd hard drive (IDE)

  BIOS and Device Manager see and correctly identify the Western Digital 120 GB IDE hard drive that I installed as internal hard drive (with jumper put Slave) to my new desktop.  Disk Management screen sees the drive, but it does not have a drive letter or volume: the central panel of this form, in the lower part, identifies it as disk 0, Basic, 111,79 GB and the brand as "Healthy (active, primary Partition).  Even when I right click on it, the context menu is all gray with the exception of "Delete the Volume" and "Help".  So I can't add a drive letter, and so I can't see the files on that disk.  It was my main drive under Win XP SP3 and has a LOT of files I want to copy on my new computer.  But my old computer is not bootable (except in Safe Mode, where I can see the files).
  New office (bought this week) using Vista Home Premium 32 bit SP1, completely up-to-date with the Windows updates.  No applications or other materials have been added.  Boot disk is SATA.

  KenF8,
  Of course, Vista does not see the volume.  He sees a hard disk, but does not recognize the data in this regard.  At this point, I would say are you will have to either return to the old computer and start in Safe Mode with network and try to copy the data over the network to the new computer, or copy data to a flash drive, external hard drive or DVD, or put the drive in an external enclosure that has either a USB or Firewire interface , so you can plug it into the computer as an external drive.  There is still no guarantee, however, that Vista will be able to read the data on the same drive in an external enclosure.

  You could search the net for third-party disk utility for which will work for the IDE drive brand, you have.  There are some on the market that can do amazing things with disks that have problems.

  Let us know how you decide to go and if you need our help.
