I can create "logical drives", but do not have an "extended partition" - listen to me?
Hello
It's a no-brainer and I know not often asked the question, but I have not found a satisfactory answer. I use Acronis Disk Director 11 and have never had to worry about "extended partitions. I simply create "logical drives" when I reached the limit on the number of "primary partitions" on my drive. And yet everywhere you look, I find that I need to create the first "extended partition", which is defined as "an extended partition is a container that can contain one or more logical drives." It is the universal definition as every definition I've found the same bed. It's as if everyone uses this definition even without really explaining what an "extended partition" really is. All have made a leap of faith that that's all that needs to be said on the subject, even if not where is it explained what is this "container" and how it is created. Acronis made a reference to an "extended partition" in his glossary (if I remember) and leaves the matter as if it served no more utility. Someone explain to me how this "container" is created and why is it necessary I can create "logical drives" without ever invited to create an "extended partition."?
I can't wait to finally put this issue to rest,
Thank you

In the past, creating another partition, the other then primary school, said to the user that an extended partition has been created and then immediately in the process of user intervention to create logical drives in the breast of the space newly allocated. Logical drives ARE essentially the "extended partition" up to a maximum of three in the extended partition on an MBR disk, and this is the limit of three in car that was important to know.
In some ways, the information given at the time was better because it gave the user a more understanding of the functioning of the system. Nowadays, the vast majority of computer users are not experts and do not know how it works. They just want turn on and go... :-)

I tried to create a partition on drive D, but did not have the letter D.
* Original title: Windows 7 and D drive
I tried to create a partition on drive D, (don't use it on my computer) through disk management, complete the Wizard but did not have the letter D. I'm curious to know why this is happening.
It could belong to a shadow drive or Player cards on the machine. Simply use the next available letter...
I thought that this might be the case, but I wasn't sure. I have software from our parent company in Asia and must be run on drive D, great pain. they want it distributed in North America, but our clients would not want this restriction. I try to explain the powers that they need to return to square one on this.
I appreciate your comments.
You can see the disk manager in Control Panel. If there is a hidden D: drive, it will display here. My guess is the drive letter is not assigned or assigned to the next letter somewhere down the line. If there is no D: drive you can assign the D: drive in there. You can change the drive letters in there also. give it a try.

Need to reinstall windows, but does not have any CD - Satellite Pro L20
Hi, I wanted to reinstall Windows XP home on my Satellite Pro L20, but do not have the software that my laptop came with (read the discs lost). I have a valid XP tone (like its stuck on the bottom of my laptop), but no disc so I tired using a copy of a cd of Windows XP home, which did not work, but let me go as far as the formatting of the hard drive.
So now I use Ubuntu, but want to reinstall Windows. Have valid product key, but no software to reinstall.
Any suggestions?
Thank you
Christopher
Valid key will not help you. This key belongs to the image recovery and copy included WXP he.
If you have two options. Either you order original Toshiba recovery image or use Microsoft installations CD key which belongs to this copy. All the necessary drivers, tools and utilities that you can download at Toshiba support page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > support & downloads.Good luck!

I need to format the hard drive but don't have the windows vista disc to reinstall, but have had the key code that vista was preinstalled do I have to buy a new drive for vista
Hello
How to reinstall Vista
Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it
they do it for a nominal cost of $
also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought
you would normally press F8, F9, F10 or F11 or Alt + F10 or 0 to start to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer
Ask them of the exact key sequence
or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc
Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer
they contain all versions of vista
This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed
