• Try to reduce a basic volume of Windows 7 on disk 0 using the new Wizard of Simple Volume, I get a warning about the conversion to a dynamic disk.

  Just bought a new laptop with Windows 7 Home Edition and decided to shrink the C: drive and create a D: drive.  Everything seems to go correctly, and I get to the 'End of Volume Wizard' screen without problem.  All the choices seem to be OK but when I click OK I get a warning that says "the operation you selected will convert selected basic disks and dynamic disks...". "I want to do this?  If I do, what are the consequences?  If I don't want to convert a dynamic disk how create a D: drive which remains a basic disk?

  Hi Ken Dunn,

  Welcome to Windows 7 Community Forums

  Basic disks and dynamic disks are of two types of hard disk configurations in Windows. Most personal computers are configured as basic disks, which are the simplest to manage. Advanced users and it professionals can make use of dynamic disks, which use multiple hard drives in a computer to manage data, usually to improve performance or reliability.

  For more information, see the link below:

  I hopeYou have followed all the steps to shrink a partition correctly but, you encounter a problem, carry out the task. You can go ahead and try the following steps to reduce a volume.

  1. open the Control Panel (all items view)and click the Administrative Tools icon. then close the Control Panel window.

  2 in administrative tools, click computer management , and then close the Administrative Tools window.

  3 in the left pane under storage, click disk management.

  4 in the center pane, right-click the partition that you want to shrink and click on Decrease of Volume.

  5 type in how many MB (1 GB = 1024 MB) of space to show available reduction you want to reduce the partition or volume by to use for the new unallocated space, and then click the minimize button.

  6 the partition selected (step 4) has now shrunk to create a new empty unallocated space. You can use this new space unallocated to create a new partition with.

  7 close the computer management window.

  To create a new partition:

  1. you must first to reduce a partition or a volume create an unallocated partition to use to create the new partition or volume with.

  2. open the Control Panel (all items view)and click the Administrative Tools icon. then close the Control Panel window.

  3 in administrative tools, click computer management , and then close the Administrative Tools window.

  4 in the left pane under storage, click disk management.

  5 in the center pane, right-click on the volume or unallocated partition empty and click on New Simple Volume. (See screenshot above)

  6 click on the Next button

  7 type in how many MB (1 GB = 1024 MB) you want to use from the unallocated partition to create the new partition, and then click the Next button. (See screenshot below)

  NOTE: If you want to use all of the unallocated partition to create the new partition, and then enter all the maximum specified for the partition unallocated disk space. If you use any of the maximum disk space, you can use the left in the unallocted partition space to create another partition with.

  Select an available drive letter you want to assign to the new partition in the computer, and then click the Next button.

  9 enter a volume label name that you want for the new partition, check the perform a quick format , and click on the Next button

  Click on the Finish button

  11 the new partition or volume has been created with the space in partition assigned unallocted (step 7).

  12 close the computer management window

• After the reduction of volume, I get "selected Operation will convert dynamic disks.

  Disk partitioning error

  I recently bought a laptop HP with Windows 7 Home Edition Basic, wanted to shrink the C drive to create another partition. However, after the reduction of the volume, I got this error:

  Operation you selected will convert dynamic disks. You will not be able to boot the operating system from any other volumes on the disk.

  It's because win7 only supports 4 basic primary partitions and your system already has 4.

  Don't not procceed in dynamic conversion because it will cause other problems later.

  If you do not create the partion when / if you are using the HP recovery disks that will destroy any partition that you created.

  If I were you I would like to extend C to use this free space, you created i.e. cancel what you were doing in the shrinking, and then explain the purpose of the planned partition.

• VMware converter 5.5 failed with the error failed to partition the disk of destination

  I tried to convert the centos linux server physical to virtual. However, I received an error message at 1% as below,

  Error: Impossible to partition the disk of destination.

  FAILED: an error occurred during conversion: "CalculateGPTPartitionLocations failed!"

  
  

  Conversion of GPT partition is available vcenter converter 5.1 and higher, so the GPT partition on the source server will not be a problem.

  Tried several ways as the storage of data changing but still receive the same error message.

  Anyone encounter this before?

  Hello

  Unfortunately there is a bug with Linux P2V Converter when the destination drive is greater than 2 TB (is not whether TPG, it's size). Sorry for the inconvenience.

  The solution would be to reduce the volumes instead of destination and/or their distributed on multiple disks. Another solution would be to leave unchecked high-volume and clone them manually after the conversion.

  Another misfortune is that these workaround solutions are not possible in your case - the root volume occupies approximately 4.3 TB, and the two 'start-up' and '-' are needed to perform a conversion with the reconfiguration.

  The options I can think of are:

  -make a manual P2V, i.e. to create the destination (with partitions, logical volumes and base) computer created and formatted, clone the data (for example the converter uses tar via ssh) and manually configure the virtual machine. The final step is, fixing/etc/fstab, installation of GRUB and rebuild the initrd image

  -install new and copy data

  -Optionally divides the volume of root on the source machine if possible and then convert it. For example, to add a new drive temporarily and move some data so that all volumes become smaller than 2 TB.

  Hello

  Make sure that OS X and Safari are up-to-date.

  Open system preferences > App Store, then click on: check now

  Your profile says your Mac works v10.11.1. The v10.11.5 update is available. This is maybe the reason why you can not install the Safari extensions.

• Impossible to expand the C partition after the reduction of the DATA Partition

  I dropped my DATA partition to increase the size of my partition Vista (c), but I can't extend C: (as far I understand it) because it is more than a single partition to the right.

  I can reformat the free space and I have another partition, but I would rather extend C:
  Is there a way to do this?

  Also, I wrote my recovery disks, but the DATA partition again should he be there? Also if you do not delete the DATA partition and that do it again you?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  The problem is that your data partition was created after the C partition.

  If you reduce a partition, the free space appears after the shrivelled partition and so you can not add this free space to the other partition of C that is placed behind the partition Data (D).

  The only way to expand the C partition is to delete the partition D and then to add this free space to the C partition, but I wouldn't delete the DATA partition because it has a record of recovery that is necessary to create the Toshiba Recovery DVD

  But if you have already created a Toshiba Recovery DVD then the deletion of the DATA partition is not a serious problem because the Toshiba Recovery disk would format the whole HARD drive and would create 3 new partitions (hidden WinRE partition, partition C system, DATA partition).

• Is anyway to create fifth partition and keep the basic hard disk?

  Hi, my laptop is g7 1207se Pavilion and the and HP has made 4 partitions (C for windows) and the other 3 for system files and recovery, I want to create a new partition for my files (so I can recover my system without losing them) or install other operating systems, but apparently if I want to create fifth partition I have to convert my hard drive in Dynamics by the practice that I won't be able to boot from any partition but the C, which means no recovery and no other operating system.

• Impossible to delete the partitions or format C

  I have a mobile shadow Smart Power (a special Aldi 2004), which comes with no hidden restore disc, but it has a much utility and disk etc. drive OEM drive.  I need to reformat C and reinstall XP Home... nothing seems to work - after surfing several hours for a reply and try to all the ones I found!  I can not get an option to format using disk management, because it is grayed out, and if I use the disc provided as a boot disk, I can't delete the partition as it says that it is in use / mounted.  Can anyone help please... as I suspect that the XP disc resembles C and just by looking at him, he believes that it is in use, so it will not let me delete the partition or format C.  I don't know how to get around this problem with the discs that I have... and experience tells me that shadow are desperate for assistance to the user, so there is probably no point of contact with them.

  All I can understand about shadow is that it was an Austrian company which has since been bought by a Taiwanese company and has almost no information available online support (although there seems to be quite expensive telephone support lines).

  You cannot remove or format the system partition (the one where Windows) of Windows.  This is why there are bootable CD installation/restoration of the system, the idea being that if you run with an operating system on the CD, you can do what you like on the hard drive.

  Your drive "OEM", is supposed to be a system restore disk or just a collection of software and drivers?

  If it is a restore disk, when you start from it, it should just restore the computer to its original state, or at least give you an option to do so.

  Can you describe the screens that appear when you start from your OEM drive?
