HP envy m6 w103dx: how to make new partitions?

The thing is that if I use the disk management software, it does allow me to have my desired partition size, if I do the partition during the installation of Windows and then I have to lose my OS and I read on the so pure support forum, I installed OS, I'd lose software recovery and content of the recovery partition is visible and they cannot be reinstalled.

So I'm always reluctant to do a clean install, because I don't really want to lose the recovery options, but don't really care about OS.

@Tayyab1

If you try to reduce the C partition and are not able to reduce beyond a certain point, this is often due to locked file - try turn off windows system restore to the C partition, reboot and then temporarily disable the pagefile.

I hope that you will now be able to reduce the partition to the size you require - once this done, re-enable the system restore and page file.

Kind regards

  • 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.

    Hi forum users

    If anyone of you needs an accurate description of installation of operating system using Expert mode, maybe this can help you.

    When the recovery process has begun there are menu where you can choose between two modes of installation.
    1 standard mode
    2. expert mode

    At first he put there important warning: all data stored on your computer will be lost. It is also important that hollow a Standard installation partition will be created and all data on the hard drive will be lost.

    If you want to install the operating system on a partition, please use Expert mode. In this case, the software can be installed on an existing partition. Alternatively, you can make one by yourself.

    If you want to make a partition with a set capacity, please do it on this path:

    1. choose number 2 Expert mode pressing
    2 approve OK key ENTER
    3. choose LOCAL > DISK > image
    4. look in: must be selected for the CD-ROM drive
    In the Middle window choose GHO file and press ENTER

    8. the question to continue with load disc? confirm with OK

    I hope this can help you to make the desired partition size.

    Good bye
    ######################

    At step 6 above, enter the size of the partition you want. Size must be entered in megabytes (MB), gigabytes (GB). (mine is 40 GB HDD, i.e. 38146. I go to half, 19073)
    Proceed with the disk load? Click OK.

    It will now recover your machine to its factory setting. 2 partitions will be made.

    Once the restore is complete, open my computer. You'll see only drive Local (c) on hard drives. Click on properties and you will see that the size that you specified in step 6 above (20 GB). So, where's my other 20 GB? It is a way to treat 2 to make a new logical drive.

  • How to make the partition of Seagate backup so the Macbook Air?

    I just bought a Macbook Air 13' 2015, I have a seagate external hard drive backup 1 TB plus all my files in it, coming from windows PC and I switch to Mac, when I try to make a partition in disk utility, I can't select an option for partition, its greyed, but I can read/write because of the Paragon for Mac OS driver I want just a partition on my mac with Time Machine backup, but I can't use my external drive for Time Machine it will erase everything on my external hard drive. Thank you

    Unless you need to keep the Windows files you put on the disk and copied to the computer, then I suggest that you simply re - prepare the drive for use on Mac. Because the drive has been formatted on a Windows system you cannot partition via the Mac. But you can re-prep. disk using the partition scheme GUID for the two partitions and format of one of them for MS-DOS or ExFAT using Windows. But as I said earlier, if you do not need to use Windows and want to use for the backup on the Mac, then he prep exclusively for Mac. Use Time Machine backup requires a volume that is at least 2 or 3 times the capacity of the computer HARD drive.

    Drive partition and format

    1. Open utility disk from the Applications\utilitaires folder.
    2. After disk utility charges select the drive (entrance Out-bumpy with of the mfgr.) ID and size) in the list to one side.
    3. Click on the Partition or delete tab in the toolbar utility of disc that is activated. If both are enabled, then choose clear.
    4. Adjustable circular diagram to set the number of partitions if you want more than one. Otherwise leave the default of one.
    5. In the Group dropdown set the GUID partition scheme. Define the type of Format Mac OS extended (journaled).
    6. Click on the apply button and wait for the fact button to activate.
    7. Quit disk utility.

    The ESXi uses about 5 GB of disk space for internal use, the rest could be used for your virtual machines. Running a Microsoft Cluster virtual has many different conditions, but it might be possible to install in your situation (assuming of course that it is a test configuration). See this document for more information on the configuration of the "cluster-in-a-box", page 10:
