HP Envy 17: Restored machine has additional partitions
I had problems, so I got a set of HP restore disks.
Everything went well, but now I find I have my drive C: and D: drive as well as 3 other partitions that have no data.
I can't access it and I would like to reclaim the space if possible.
In addition, the D (recovery) displays twice in computer management/Disk Management window.
Is there a way to fix this or do I just have to live with it?
Have you selected an option of factory reset full on departure recovery option?
If you want, you have another option to CLEAN directly INSTALL Windows 8.1 update your system Windows 8. It will be activated automatically during the installation.

Dear team,
I want to devote 8 vcpu to one of the virtual machine, but it gives following error
"Virtual Machine has 8 virtual processors, but the host supports only 4. The number of virtual processors can be limited by the selected guest OS for the virtual machine or the granting of licenses for the host".
want to know the weather, that it depends on the os under license or guest vm
Hello
It is the restriction of license. 4-way vSMP is the right thing, you stressed in your screenshot.
If you upgrade your server and license to vSphere 5, you can allocate 8 vCPU with Standard license and 32 vCPU with your license of the company!

My hard disk has been partitioned in c, d, e, f &. I ran out of space on my c drive, although I do not install anything there and can not see anything I can delete to free up space. How can I solve this problem

A few months ago, I created a Windows 8 bootcamp partition, and then, I updated for Windows 10 without any problem. But I no longer need and I would attribute this space to OS X. The problem is when I try to remove it from the app of Bootcamp, I get this message: "the startup disk cannot be partitioned or restored to a single partition. The startup disk must be formatted in a single volume in Mac OS extended (journaled) or already partitioned by Boot Camp Assistant to install Windows. »
It comes to the current state of the hard drive:
You have an idea? Thanks for the help.
I finally solved it. It seems that I had a not mounted partition which it has not been used. I removed it and it solved all the problems:
-
virtual machine cannot start, because the snapshot of the virtual machine has been deleted by mistake.
When I start this virtual machine, it prompts: unable to find the 0001.vmdk, this disc is my shot, has been deleted by mistake.
How to restore this virtual machine.
You need help with a revival of the 000001.vmdk deleted or do you want to repair the virtual machine so that it works without the snapshot?
The last option, follow these steps:
remove the virtual machine from the inventory and edit the vmx file so that it uses the basedisk. Then add the virtual machine to inventory.
If you need data from the snapshot call me through Skype "sanbarrow" - I may be able to help -
Transport mode "nbdssl" is not available if the virtual machine has no snapshot
When I use VixDiskLib_ConnectEx with a vmdk having a snapshot, I "nbdssl". If the virtual machine has no snapshot, I've always had "nbd" no matter what I specified in the parameter transportModes of the VixDiskLib_ConnectEx. I tried NULL, "nbdssl". It affects always unconditionally "nbd" when there is no snapshot.
Is this expected behavior? If so, I am not able to write safely to a vmdk. During a recovery, I create a new vm. However, there is no snapshot. I want to get back to this vmdk. How to work around this limitation of security?
You use 1.1? nbdssl restores are not supported on 1.1.

Boot Camp - boot disk cannot be partitioned or restored to a single partition
Hello
Would really appreciate some help on this!
I tried to install Windows 7 on my iMac 2015 but during the installation of windows it guests that the partition must be formatted in a different way.
Now when I try to use Boot Camp once again, I get this message:
The startup disk cannot be partitioned or restored to a single partition.
The startup disk must be formatted in a single volume in Mac OS extended (journaled) or already partitioned by Boot Camp Assistant to install Windows.
The problem is that I can't erase the Boot Camp Partition in any way using disk utility.
If it's any help - it is the diskutil list:

The Macs listed to install Windows 7 and previous versions on your Mac with Boot Camp - Apple supported support W7. 2015 macs don't support W7.
The only supported method to remove Windows from a Fusion using Mac drive is Boot Camp: Remove Windows from your Mac . Do not use disk utility.
You seem to have tried a deletion of THE (not deleting a partition), at least once. Your BC partition is now a HFS partition. Convert it back into a FAT32 partition on THE and then try to remove it by using the link provided.
If you are unable to remove using BCA, then use the steps of the Re: doesn't have windows via bootcamp 8.1 installation .

Hello!
I'm trying to install Windows on my iMac (late 2013, running 10.11.6) without success. I created the ISO to a flash drive, but when I try to use the Assistant Boot camp, I am referred to the following screen:
I did my best to study solutions. The cause, by apple support discussions, is that there is another partition of pre-empting (stop) the wizard boot camp partitioning the hard drive. I studied the partitions on my HDD after unplugging all devices and found this:
This shows the main partition: Macintosh HD, the bootcamp partition: BOOTCAMP; and 2 unknown partitions: "Apple HDD ST100DM003 Media" and the same * M004. I was able to delete the first Apple ST100DM003 HARD disk partition and ran first aid on the fusion drive after that the second he would not remove. Also, I can't delete the boot camp partition. I keep getting the same message when I try to install windows on a partition of the fuser unit using Boot Camp Assistant - "Startup disk cannot be partitioned or restored to a single partition".
Any suggestions?
Please after the release of the following OSX Terminal commands.
diskutil list
Cs diskutil list
A reader of merger should have underlying EFI, OSX, Recovery HD on each of the physical disks. If your previous Windows installation attempts have failed, the disks can leave in a State where BCA use/will not change them.

When I want to restart the training camp that I got the error message: "the startup disk cannot be partitioned or restored to a single partition.

I tried to delete the Windows Recovery 2 partitions with disk utility tools but the button "-" to remove them were leaving is disabled.
Is it a good idea to remove these partitions? If yes how?
1. What is the year/model of your Mac?
2. you are trying to install a new copy of the W10 or remove the existing installation?
3. do you have the W8 or installation/upgrade W8.1 had problems before the upgrade of the W10?

I have a HP ENVY 750-177c and has been upgraded and 2 thin black wires were disconnected from the motherboard. They have loops at the end of the wires that look like they might slip on the pins. The wires connect to the upper part of the box of the computer. Where to reconnect?
Find this card in your system. It is the M2 half-bridge Wireless card. The other end of the wires must always be fixed. There are 2 heels left and right of the '2 '. If everything is correct, it is your physical WI - FI antenna. Just re - stick inside the case. The small clips are used for an external aerial connection.

I had some problems with my computer recently I knew could be solved with the system restore. Then I went into system restore and went to a restore point that was a few weeks back. After I clicked on it and pressing the ok button, the following message appeared: "the changes made to the G: drive after this point cannot be reversed, because the drive has been either excluded from monitoring system restore or has been disabled or deleted.» I let it continue and do the restore. My computer has rebooted and came up with an error in system restore that says restore failed. It's the same thing with other restore points. I don't know why I get this error because I not made any changes to this hard drive except for copy of a document word on him. I thought that the System Restore monitors removable disks. Anyone know what is happening here and how I can get the restoration of the system to operate without the mistakes to come?
I have Norton. Disable the Tamper Protection works. I also noticed that since the G: drive was a portable hard drive, System Restore wanted to exercise oversight. He wants to monitor all hard drives. Turn on external and portable hard disks prevents tracking system restore changes to the readers. I don't think anyone would have the system restore review external drives anyway. It is not necessary.

Hello
1 did you changes to the software to the computer?
2. what happens when you try to use the system restore? You get the error message?You get this error message if you already have a newer version of the operating system and then if you try to install an older version on it.
Method 1.
Temporarily disable the security software installed on the computer and check if the problem persists.
Important note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.
Method 2.
Please check if you are facing the same question when working in safe mode.
a. restart your computer.
b. when the computer starts, you will see your computer hardware are listed. When you see this information tap the F8 on your keyboard key repeatedly until you are presented with the screen Windows XP Advanced Startup Options.
c. using the arrow keys, select the desired option of Mode without failure.
d. press the Enter key on your keyboard to start in safe mode of Windows XP.
e. when Windows starts, try using System Restore and verify.

For example

Partitioning your disks for ASM configuration as 'A' might make sense. If you lose one disk, you have the discs to another.
'B' totally make sense if you have lost the disc that you have lost all group ASM and you need to change this with something like 'C '.
But obviously you need redundancy ASM configured appropriately.
