• Logical disk management does not recognize a slave drive

  I installed an internal HD as a slave. The BIOS sees the drive, Western Digital Lifeguard sees the drive (it checks OK) with the appropriate drive letter, PMagic sees the drive before starting, but the logical disk manager does not recognize the drive or the drive letter.

  Using Windows XP, SP3 with latest updates

  Hello

  1. The hard drive is recognized in another computer?

  If this isn't the case, then the problem could be the hard drive itself. If he is found, then the problem is in your computer. In this case, run the diskpart.exe utility.

  Use the list partition command and see if the partition is detected. If so, then I suggest you to format the drive in diskpart.

  However, take a return of all data on the hard drive before the format by plugging it into another computer. Help with backup data, see

  Backup: what, how, where

  http://www.Microsoft.com/protect/data/backup/about.aspx

  To use the Diskpart.exe utility, follow these steps:

  1. type diskpartand press ENTER to open the diskpart tool.

  2. type list diskand press ENTER. A list of available hard disks.

  3. type select disk =[n]

  n s Specifies the number of disc the disc to receive the focus.

  4. type list partition

  This command displays the partitions listed in the table to partition on the current drive.
  5. type select partition =[d]

  This command selects the specified partition and gives it the focus.

   d s Specifies the drive letter or mount point path of the partition to receive the focus.

  6. type format drive: / FS: NTFS/Quick

  For more information about commands, see

  A Description of the Diskpart command-line utility

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/300415

  Now you should be able to see the slave drive in Solution Explorer.

• In disk management, I checked the drive to shrink the process after that he had finished he told me that there is space for shrinkage of 9 GB!

  Hi all

  I only have one disc space (C) with 1 TB space, the free volume of that disk is about 330 GB, I want to reduce it to create the new volume. In disk management, I checked the drive to shrink the process after that he had finished he told me that there is space for shrinkage of 9 GB!
  Can someone help!

  Original title: Shrink Volume

  The common cause for limited space retractable is the Table of master files (MFT). It is essentially a system file good behaviour that even Windows own Defrag tool will not move.

  PerfectDisk will clean this file and there is a free trial available.

• Manager Windows 8.1 and the HP recovery disk manager cannot remove the recovery partition

  I have the following computer: HP ENVY h8 desktop PC - 1437c.  I used the HP Recovery application to do a recovery on a flash drive disk. When you have finished this operation it was not an option to remove the recovery partition (drive D on my computer. I tried to reopen the HP Recovery Manager and try to remove it like that, but to remove it is greyed out. I also tried to delete it using the 8.1 windows Disk Manager, but there is no way to do there either. If I right click on the recovery Partition, I get only an option 'help '. How can I get rid of this partition and recover lost space using it now on my hard drive. Windows and HP did not want to provide more records with their computers, but they do not have a problem of screwing of MY hard drive that I bought and paid for. I should start to charge rent for the space.

  I just used the software and created another partition as drive D using all unallocated space. I can delete probably once again, or maybe I'll just use it as a storage device for my files instead of recovering files sofetware... Thanks for the help

• The initialization of the swap file to virtual disk periodically (40% of the time +/-) fails to start Windows

  Greetings-

  For the past year or so I put my Windows 7 32-bit, 8 GB RAM system to initialize the page automatically on a virtual disk file (in order to reduce the physical disk reads/writes and to speed up the access to the page files).

  Here's how I set up: I installed Dataram Ramdisk and configured to use memory beyond 4 GB (which, as everyone here knows, 32-bit Windows can not otherwise use) as the ramdisk.  In setting up manually formatted the 4 GB unallocated space virtual drive as an NTFS volume and it gave the letter a: (what else!). Then I got the software save an image file of the ramdisk formatted my hard drive F:. Additional configuration of the software wants to initialize the virtual disk to start and immediately copy the image file to the virtual disk, thus creating a 4 GB NTFS formatted volume a:. (Incidentally, I also use the virtual disk to the cache of the browser and the print spooler). The theory here is flawless. But to make it work in practice, the virtual disk must be initialized and the image file copied into ramdisk (making it a formatted disk R :) front Windows initializes the pagefile.

  It runs about 60% of the time, but for the remaining 40 percent Windows gives an error message indicating that Windows has created the page file in a temporary location (it's always the C: drive, the pagefile in general where default.). The only reasonable explanation I see why it fails is that, for nearly 40% of my computer boots window wants to initialize the page file before the ramdisk is ready to receive. What I don't understand is why that happens.

  This happen to my main question: is it possible to control the Windows boot sequence so that the ramdisk is initialized and the filename of the image copied to him on a basis consistent before Windows wants to initialize the page file? Operationally, I guess it boils down to whether it is possible, during each startup sequence, to delay initialization of the page files or to move the virtual boot record earlier in the sequence. If so, how to do that? If not, can someone explain why the order of the respective boots usually works, but does not reach a good amount as well?

  Ideas on this would be appreciated.

  Create a small paging file to 20 MB on the boot volume (the partition where the Windows files are installed) this way the session manager will be able to start the Windows session and create additional paging files without complaining.  You can have more than one paging on several disks, Windows will favour the less busy the disk paging file.

• I have windows XP on three partitions, in disk management, I deleted a partition and now I can't boot into the partion, I want to keep.

  I have windows XP on three partitions, especially because I tried to repair my not be able to start. It all started when disk management I deleted a partition, I thought was unnecessary. now, I can't start the partion, I want to keep. Black startup screen says something about disk management cannot find the hard disk of material, something like that. I can start in one of the other partitions, but I want to get back the deleted partition. Windows XP, AMD 64 dual. Help, please.

  Hello Seymour777,

  There is good and bad news for this.

  The good news is that there is a way to do it.

  The bad news is usually the disc at the level of the publishing industry.

  This operation is not in this forum.

  Your best option right now is to look for a data recovery specialist or watch data recovery programs that will do the job for you.

  Best regards

• To install the new eSATA / SATA to USB 2.0 hard drive in an external enclosure but the computer does not recognize the drive in disk management

  I have an old computer with installed Microsoft Windows XP SP2 and 3.  I bought a new hard drive and also a new external hard drive for her case.  I have correctly installed the hard drive inside the enclosure, and I think that I have installed correctly (in the motherboard SATA port) eSATA port, according to the manufacturer's instructions.  I plugged everything... first eSATA, then power and power switch.  I restarted the computer, and I chose to analyze disks in disk management.  However, the new drive is not recognized.  The SATA port on the motherboard could not work or did I buy the bad, perhaps, hard drive enclosure for my system?  Or something related to the software?  Thank you.

  Hi Donnadream,

  Connect the hard drive to another port and check if that makes a difference

  Step 1: You can follow the steps mentioned in the article below, which deals with a similar question

• The operation did not complete because the disk management console view is not updated.

  Disk title management error: Windows 7 original by adding a drive letter
  Well, I don't know why this is happening, but if I try to add a disk to my windows system, it will not automatically add a drive letter, but it will add a drive letter to my USB and USB external drives without problem. It's just when I plug it in sata he's going all wobbly. I see the HARD internal disk in disk as a disk, but windows disk management Refuses anyway shape to add a drive letter, even with diskpart automount enabled. This is the error I get when I try:

  "The operation failed to complete because the disk management console view is not updated. Refresh the view by using the refresh task. If the problem persists close the disk management console, then restart disk management or restart the computer. »

  Absolutely nothing works. I tried Diskpart, acronis, AOMEI, EausUS, chkdsk, sfc/scannow, Microsoft fixit. Nothing works to get the drive Manager to add a drive letter to an internal HARD disk. Like I said, sticks and USB drives are no problem. I looked all over Google and I have not seen one solution to this problem short of a total erase and start again, and at this point, I'm not be done with everything I installed and might have to reinstall.

  I have other systems that do not have this problem. Just this one windows 7 install x 64. Can anyone shed some light on why this happens and how to fix it or if there is even a fix for it.

  Thank you

  Methadras

  Just to follow and finish this, the old MAIN drive has had some problems and was

  continues to worsen, it ends up by crashed.  scannow revealed some Windows system

  Files were corrupted and could not be repaired.  After the crash, I used the blank hard disc 500 gig

  and did a restore of the system since the disks created with the purchase and restored the system to

  "DAY 1".   Yes all the data and installed programs are missing, but I reinstalled my software.

  Adding external or internal disks worked without any problem now.

  I created a Windows 7/64 system repair disc.

  I created an Image of the system.

  I have a backup plan.

  I do the scheduled backup.

  I learned a lesson...

• The new HD does not appear in the bios or in disk management?

  Upgrading to a new computer with win7.  I want to add my old HD as a second HD for the computer.  I installed and connected to the power source and the SATA cable.  The HD may not appear anywhere on the computer.  It is not in disk management or in the bios? Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  Hello

  Sometimes, a 'new' disk is not picked up by Windows. EaseUS Partition Master is a program that I found a workaround, download here: http://download.cnet.com/Easeus-Partition-Master-Free-Edition/3000-2248_4-10863346.html?tag=mncol;1 .

  Once installed, it should recognize your drive and allow you to repartition / reformat to use with Windows 7.

  Let me know if this solves the problem for you.

  Kind regards

• View of the Disk Management Console is not updated.

  I use win 7.
  I tried to change the size of the disk by using the magic of the partion and it failed. He asked me about a wrong address, and I click on continue (I guess he's changed the logical address).
  Now I can't see my partion (D) to the workstation.
  When I run windows disk management and try to change the drive letter, it is said: "the operation failed to complete because the disk management console view is not updated. Refresh the gwendoline by using the refresh task. If the problem persists close the disk management console, then restart disk management or restart the computer. »
  I tried with windows Diskpart to mount the partition but I can't. If I have the volume list, it shows me only (C), but if I list the partition, then it shows me all the 3 partition:
  Partion 1: OEM
  Partion 2: primary
  Partion 3: primary
  but I can't access partition 3.

  Hello faithful,.

  Have you tried to use other third-party programs to "manipulate" the discs?  It seems that even if Palcouk $ million question with is it compatible, so I shot to the top of Partition Magic site and see the this PM 8 is not compatible with Windows 7.  I would try to see if you can access the partition from the command prompt, but I promise that would work.  Have you created a backup of your data before you do?

  I would say go to the link below and post a question with the community to see if you have viable options to recover from this.

• Disk Management screen 'Letters to lead change' grayed out for 2nd hard drive (IDE)

  BIOS and Device Manager see and correctly identify the Western Digital 120 GB IDE hard drive that I installed as internal hard drive (with jumper put Slave) to my new desktop.  Disk Management screen sees the drive, but it does not have a drive letter or volume: the central panel of this form, in the lower part, identifies it as disk 0, Basic, 111,79 GB and the brand as "Healthy (active, primary Partition).  Even when I right click on it, the context menu is all gray with the exception of "Delete the Volume" and "Help".  So I can't add a drive letter, and so I can't see the files on that disk.  It was my main drive under Win XP SP3 and has a LOT of files I want to copy on my new computer.  But my old computer is not bootable (except in Safe Mode, where I can see the files).
  New office (bought this week) using Vista Home Premium 32 bit SP1, completely up-to-date with the Windows updates.  No applications or other materials have been added.  Boot disk is SATA.

  KenF8,
  Of course, Vista does not see the volume.  He sees a hard disk, but does not recognize the data in this regard.  At this point, I would say are you will have to either return to the old computer and start in Safe Mode with network and try to copy the data over the network to the new computer, or copy data to a flash drive, external hard drive or DVD, or put the drive in an external enclosure that has either a USB or Firewire interface , so you can plug it into the computer as an external drive.  There is still no guarantee, however, that Vista will be able to read the data on the same drive in an external enclosure.

  You could search the net for third-party disk utility for which will work for the IDE drive brand, you have.  There are some on the market that can do amazing things with disks that have problems.

  Let us know how you decide to go and if you need our help.
  Thank you

• Volume letter and empty file system entries in disk management

  I have a D: drive which worked well for a few years. Now I can not access the content. In Explorer, it says:

  D:\ is not accessible the file or directory is corrupted and unreadable

  In disk management, the "Volume" and "File system" columns for this volume are empty. Right-click the product volume icon only help and not the list of other possible actions (open, Explorer etc) that has developed for other volumes. The Status column indicates "healthy (OEM partition). In the graphical display of the drive, it says 94 MB healthy, as it has always done for this volume.

  All other volumes are functioning normally.

  I got appreaciate any advice on how to study why this is happening.

  Can post you a photo of the lower pane in the window Disk Manager disk of sky as a shared file and a link here.

  You can access disk management by typing disk management in the search box above the Start button and pressing ENTER, or by selecting Start, Control Panel, administrative tools, computer management, storage, disk management.

  The letter D is commonly attributed to a DVD player. DVD shows only one size when a DVD is in the drive. 94 mb would not be a size, so it might be referred to or used free disk space.

  Hope this helps, Gerry Cornell

• My SATA to USB bridge is not recognized in disk management

  I bought a few SATA USB adapter, connected to my WD hard drive and my USB port, the computer recognizes, to install software for it and that's all.
  I can't read the disc via Explorer because it is not recognized, only in the Device Manager it seems nowhere to be found, saying SPIF30x USB2SATA bridge device USB. I've searched for so many solutions and everything I find people you said to go to disk management and assign it a letter. Problem is, it does not appear. Everything I see here, is my main hard drive, divided into 4 parts, which should be normal, but in the port USB (F:\), where I plugged the adapter, it shows nothing. The adapter itself has 2 LEDs indicating power and access, with only the power light that shines. The light also keeps shining when I plug the hard disk, so my guess is the adapter is recognized, but the disk is not. The drive should work, I've so far always used internally (SATA cable from the motherboard, you know).
  Please help me with this.

  If its not seen in disk management and then the drive has failed or connection method, the usb/sata converter does not work
