I don't have a single drive hard, but pc says I have c and d ' training is posible to bolt to merge and have only one

I can't update windows xp drive c doesn't say not enough free space do not understand how I c and d when I have only a hard drive

This article (KB187876) is a little dated.  The suggestion to convert to FAT32 FAT16 is!  And references to Scandisk and DriveSpace3 reveal even that the article was probably written with Win 98 in mind.

I realize that the article header says "Last Review: February 3, 2011 - review: 4.1", but without doubt, Microsoft should have removed this article or at least Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows Me added to the list of "products of this article applies to" rather than leave it just to "Windows Update" (which makes it sound as if it applies to current versions of Windows).

To the original poster:

If D: is on your hard drive (instead of referring to a CD player), TechGeek2 is probably right that there is a restore partition and should be left alone.  Here is my answer to the question of the "low disk space": canned

There are a number of things you can do to- temporarily - free up disk space.  The only real solution, however, is to get a bigger internal hard drive or internal a second drive.   You can move the data to an external drive, but if it's the data that you use frequently, slower access times may annoy you.  Therefore, I do not recommend that you move your My Documents folder in its entirety on an external drive, but you can certainly do this by following the related instructions. Moving My Documents to a second internal drive would be OK.

  • You can run Disk Cleanup (start > run > cleanmgr > OK)
  • You can reduce the size allocated for the restoration of the system to about 1 GB (right click on desktop > properties > system restore > settings)
  • You can disable hibernation (if you don't use it) (right click on an empty spot on the desktop > properties > screen saver > power > Hibernate)
  • You can disable the indexing of the drive, which will also speed up your computer a bit (http://lifehacker.com/031440/turn-off-indexing-and-speed-up-windows-xp)
  • You can reduce the size of your Internet browser cache (depending on the browser that you use)
  • You can remove most of the $NTUninstallKBxxxxxx files $ following the directions here: http://windowsxp.mvps.org/Hotfix_backup.htm (read the warnings in the gray box first)
  • See also:

" How to recover disk space on Windows Server 2008 and Windows XP computers? ."

" Forty ways to free disk space ."

But none of these answers you will earn really large amounts of space for very long.  The term solution time is a bigger hard drive.

In the meantime, download and run JDiskReport, that will show you graphically what files take up more space and seem to so indicate what files you must move it to your external drive.  If you want to move an application to another drive (external drive or secondary internal drive), you will need to uninstall and then reinstall it specifying the other drive as the installation location.  You can not simply move the files.  Even when an application is installed on a different drive, however, it may well put some files on the system drive (i.e. the drive where Windows is located).

  • At 2 this morning toolbars; now don't have only one. How to restore the missing toolbar?

    Not very in computing, so here: this morning, I had 2 toolbars or a toolbar of level 2 showing the icons and descriptive captions, I created some time ago. I was the computer off for awhile and when I came back to it only the first toolbar (or level) showed. It have a button, I think, that allows me to add sites to the toolbar, but I can't see this button. I tried some of the suggestions given to others who have asked similar questions, but without success.

  • using 30 firefox in windows 7, I get a blank when you restart, if I don't have that one tab open when I close it.

    I have my options set for firefox "open windows and tabs from last time", but whenever I don't have that one tab left open, I get a blank page. If I have several tabs, then it opens with the tab and windows.
    I am running Windows 7 Professional and Firefox 30. Thanks for any help you can offer.

    Quote: it's only when I have no tabs open I get the blank page (instead of the homepage).

    There is always at least one open tab, if it didn't is no extensions installed that hide the bar tab in this case.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

    • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe

  • I have enough space on the flash drive backup but message says no space.

    Original title: complete PC Backup

    I have Windows XP on my computer and try again to back up my computer before a move.  I have two 2 64 GB San disk flash disks that should accommodate more than what I have on my computer.  However, I get the message that one of flash drives is not enough, so I inserted the following - which is not big enough.  Positively, I don't have that much on my computer to consume up to 128 GB of backup space.  Do I need to use a different backup program other than that of the control panel?  Is there another one that is good, useful, fast?  Help!

    If you are using in relying on the built in NT backup to back up your system, it is the primitive technology (obviously - since you will be asked for a floppy disk when it is done).  If you have a disaster (even minor), you'll have a big problem trying to retrieve your orders if you do not have a floppy drive - and maybe even if you do not have a floppy drive you are most likely still a big problem if you need to restore your stuff.

    If you want to make a backup, an image, or a sort of clone of your system, it makes sense to use modern technology - and that the technology is not integrated into XP.

    There are many popular options for XP Backup and imaging software (s) of third parties.

    A people a popular seem to like is Acronis.

    With this (free 30 day trial) you backup, you can make a bootable CD or bootable USB (which is modern, huh?) and use than disaster.

    They used to have a completely free version - maybe no more - just the 30 day trial, and then you have to buy, but it is highly respected.

    It is so much more robust than the XP Backup, it's laughable.

    There are many other options if you do a little research on Google...

    Here are a few products that other users of the forum could be appealing.  Use Google to find and read about their features and capabilities.  Some have free versions, or you can buy to get more features:

    If you have a Western Digital drive, you can get a version of Acronis True Image free of WD:

    http://support.wdc.com/product/downloaddetail.asp?Swid=119

    Or you can get the backup software and cloning separately (this is not an exhaustive list and in no particular order, some are free, some not):

    Acronis True Image Home
    EASEUS ToDo Backup free
    Paragon Drive Copy or Partition Manager Personal
    Casper
    Norton Ghost

    Some disk cloning software for you to Google ideas:

    XXClone
    Marcium account
    DriveImageXML
    Acronis True Image Home 11
    EASEUS ToDo Backup
    Paragon Drive Copy or Partition Manager Personal
    Casper
    Norton Ghost

    No matter what method you choose, it is prudent to test your method of end to end to make sure that it works.

    You can create a temporary folder somewhere on your system and copy a bunch of files, perform your backup, and then delete the temporary folder and don't forget that you can retrieve your backup.

    The day you have your backup/restore process to work is not the day, namely that it does not work.

  • DVD-ROM drive works, but does not appear in 'Computer' and discs can be played

    I totally messed up my DVD - ROM drive. After graduating the famous blue screen of death once yesterday and once today, I thought that my PC settings reset would fix the problem. Then, I pressed F2 when my computer starts and resets all settings. Unforunately, this is something serious to my DVD - ROM drive. Initially, it did not work, so I opened my computer and somehow got it works. But now, it does not detect the disks I insert in there. I get the message "no DVD - ROM drive found."

    Anyone know if it's fixable? I hope I don't have to take my computer somewhere for repair. Unforunately, I don't know the make or model of the hard drive. My the PC features that I think are important are listed below.

  • Qosmio G20 - how to install with a single drive HARD and without RAID?

    I would like to implement G20 Qosimo new with Windows XP 32.
    I bought a new hard drive and put it on the slot 1. I would like to run without any RAID (slot 2 is so empty)

    XP installation CD not found HD
    I went into the BIOS to see if the HD was there - HD is considered normal
    then I thought that I have to change RAID JBOD (page 3 of the BIOS), but it did not work
    I have confirmed with the button of 1234 - but nothing happened.

    In another task, they said to install the RAID-(pressant F6,... tout en commencer l'installation de XP) drivers
    I put the drivers on a USB - but the system will not detect it (and there is no floppy drive)

    I don't know how to install XP on this laptop.
    Any tips?

    Chris

    Can you get the external floppy drive (floppy drive) and load the RAID drivers using this disc which should be connected using the USB port?

    This floppy drive, you can buy on eBay for a few euros.

  • PE2950 with ^ TB drive HARD, but cannot have > 2 TB partition

    Hello

    I have some weird problems with my new PE2950 with HARD SAS of 6x1TB drive.

    With RAID 5, I can use the BIOS to create a RAID 5 (about 4.5 TB of space).

    However, I can't use more than 2 TB. I read that if a cluster size increase, I can easily use 2 TB, 4 TB or more. But I can use only 1.9 TB (100 GB was used for Windows 2003 at the root). The remaining 2.6 TB becomes "unallocated" and unusable.

    In addition, by using the Dell Instalation CD, there is no option to format the partition 'installation' in any other cluster size...

    Please notify.

  • I had a HP with XP Media Edition on this, got angry and destroyed someday drive hard, but always have the key, the key will work on another form of XP?

    As I said, I always have the key for it. But does not know if the key will work on just a normal copy of Windows XP? Also cannot find a download of XP? Guess that's what happens when you wait 17 years to ask about it.

    If your computer was HP and it came with this version of Windows installed, then you probably have an OEM of Windows version.  An OEM key does not work for a retail install the version of Windows.  To reinstall Windows without owning a set of install CD/DVD from HP, you will need to contact HP for help as they regulate the licenses Windows installed on their products.

  • Vista tips - drive hard main 'default' mistake, want to remove and use secondary 1 TB drive as primary

    I have a 4 ~ 5 year old computer in a more recent case, with a secondary 1 TB drive that I added earlier this year. I upgraded from XP to Vista Home Premium with upgrade software.

    A few days ago I started having an error message saying that my hard drive is failing or corrupt, and that I should repair or remove.

    I support from now all my personal files. But if I remove the drive and put the disk of 1 TB to act as principal, can I install the Windows Vista 'Upgrade'?

    Or should I try first installing Vista on the 1 TB drive, and then delete the default one?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello badboodah77,

    Thank you for posting.  Is there a way to do what you want.  It is a called xcopy command line commard.
    You will need to have both drives connected at the same time to make it work.  Once the two are connected, you can use the xcopy command in the command prompt to copy on your disk to the new disk.  After you have copied the disk, analyze the new drive to find errors.  I have included a link below with instructions on the use of xcopy.
    you will need to use most of the settings for the copy (example xcopy C:\ D:\/c/e/f/h/r/s )
