Only the C partition on the new Satellite C50-B-14Z

Hello

I'm not an experienced user, but I'll do my best to explain the problem.

I bought Toshiba Satellite C50-B-14Z with 8.1 installed Windows, and when starting the system, I noticed that there is only one partition of hard drive, the C partition. When you enter the disk management, I see there are 4 basic partitions already (500 GB disk):

-Recovery - 1 GB
-EFI system - 100 MB
-Recovery - 10.97 GB
-C (boot, page file, crash dump, primary partition) - 453,57 GB

They are all primary partitions, and I read on the forums that you can have only 4 those primary, so I can't add one more to the D partition, I would like to have.
Possibility that I offered in "actions" is to create a virtual hard drive, but I guess that is not the same thing.
I also read that you can create new partition if you have "unallocated" space (partition), but all 4 before indicated are those primary and not affected.

Then, the next opportunity that I read on is to do a right-click on C and "reduce volume", and then create new partition from the rest of the space (if I understand it is good), but then I read in Windows Help:
"When you shrink a partition, all regular files are automatically transferred to the disk to create the new unallocated space. There is no need to reformat the drive to shrink the partition. » ... "If the partition is a raw partition (that is, a lack of a file system) that contains data (for example, a database file)", reducing the partition may destroy the data. ""

Normally, I have never tested a large part with the C partition, and now I don't know if I would destroy some system files while doing this "shrinkage" and I don't have the CD installation for the system, so I can't fix it if I ruin something.

Please advise...

Yes, this is the right way to have more than one partition. You can define what capacity should partition C and any free space can be "convert" to the D partition.

One last thing: don't forget to create a recovery (DVD or USB) media. It is very important to have recovery image back-up.

  • On the new Satellite C50-A-19U battery problem

    Hello

    A few days ago I bought a new notebook Satellite C50-A-19U.

    Everything works without problems, except when I unplug the power cable, the battery level goes from 100% to 50% both.

    If I try to charge the phone, battery load normally up to 50% and then spend 50% to 100%.

    Anyone facing this problem?

    Post edited by: tonybp

    I don't really know what may be the problem here. Try to use the battery until it will be completely empty and let it be fully charged again.

    Please watch carefully if the same happens again and send feedback.

  • On the new Satellite C50-A-14W battery problem

    A few days ago, I bought Toshiba Satellite c - 50 a - 14w. The accumulator is recharged normally (at 100%), but when I plug the computer in the farm shows that 72% charged.

    This means that the battery is broken?

    Hello

    New battery needs to be calibrated in case to reach full performance.

    To calibrate the battery, you must charge the battery until the battery indicator turn green (or blue). Then disconnect the power adapter and keep the battery discharge until it is completely empty.
    This procedure should be repeated two, three times in the line.

    If the battery charge status would not be changed, even if the battery has been calibrated, you should get in touch with Toshiba authorized service provider to check or replace the battery.

  • Installation of Windows XP Home edition on the new Satellite Pro L550

    Hello

    I have a new satellite Pro L550 and need to downgrade to XP. If I want to go back to Windows 7 that I can in the future?

    Thank you, Lisa

    Hello Lista

    In my opinion you should look forward and begin using the new Windows7 operating system. It is really good OS, well done and runs with good performance on Toshiba laptops.
    Please note that you have most recent laptop with newer hardware model designed for standards of Win7.
    Yes, you can install Win7 when you want.

    Win7 is fully supported and you won't have any problems with it.
    To return to Windows XP edition family has no much sense to me, except to use some old software designed for Windows XP Home edition only.

    Anyway, what model of laptop you have exactly (L550-xxx)?

  • Windows 7 does not start on the new Satellite C660-195

    Hello

    I just bought a Toshiba Satellite C660-195 with Windows 7 pre-installed.

    This morning I turned on it and it came with a black box with x:windows\system32\drvload.exe in it. This box then disappeared and Startup Repair kicked. He then told me that Startup Repair cannot repair this computer automatically. The notice were to remove any device that had recently been attached to the laptop (such as a webcam or music device) but I did not install a hardware or devices. I clicked finish and stop you the laptop.

    I lit it again and it's the same thing (new!)

    A forum would suggest trying the following: click on the link 'Show advanced options of the system and support recovery' who asked me to choose the configuration of my keyboard, but then when I do & click then it tells me "you must register to access system recovery options" I am never given the option connect!

    When using the F8 advanced boot options I'm still not able to solve this problem. The same thing (see above) that happens when I try to start in all security modes, last good known Configuration (Advanced), debug mode, start Windows normally etc. I don't understand it.

    Looking for other forums, they suggested dΘplaτant zero while running and then one selects Windows 7 to restore the laptop to its factory settings, but the same thing happens - it shows just the black screen with x:windows\system32\drvload.exe launched then startup repair, that does not solve the problem.

    I don't have a disc of windows 7 to restore since I only bought the laptop 6 days ago and didn't have time to do a still. In addition, the laptop must have the restoration on his hard drive, but I can't access it to restore windows.

    I'm just a home user understand all technical talk. Please can someone help me?

    Hello

    Sorry to hear you I have this problem. The fact is that the new laptops come with only HARD drive recovery image and not with recovery DVDs. What you can try now is to install the recovery image using HARD drive recovery facility.
    If this works you need out of the box again.

    Please do it following the instructions in this document - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9102IR0000R01.htm

    Do you use your new Satellite phone with original operating system preinstalled that you got with it?

    Have you noticed these problems since the first day or later?
    What you can try is to reinstall extra package from Toshiba. This package contains several tools and one of them is utility of flash cards.

    Latest version, you can find on the download page of Toshiba under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp

    Toshiba Hello Forum
    I need to install kaspersky internet security 2015 (i've got the third license) on my new laptop, but there are already installed (but not yet configured) McAfee

    How do you propose to do?
    do I need to uninstall McAfee before you begin to install kaspersky?
    I read [former position | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=48993] who's talking about problem of uninstalling McAfee...

    THX and sorry for my English.

    So I use Avira before Avira installation I delete originally preinstalled application antivirtus. I recommend you do the same thing.
    On my new Satellite, I removed McAffe without any problem using the option Uninstall in Control Panel > programs and features.

    After restarting the laptop installed Kaspersky and I'm sure that everything will be OK.

  • Question of battery charge on the new Satellite C50t-A-10J

    I have a new Satellite C50t-A-10J that has intermittent load problems. Sometimes it charges ok sometimes it says connected does not support. When no current charging if I click on the battery icon supported starts and continues ok.

    Does anyone know of a more automatic solution? I read on similar problem solved by uninstalling and then reinstalling the Microsoft ACPI battery compatible control method in Device Manager but is reluctant to try because the computer is new.

    I can of course go back to the retailer, but thought I'd post just in case someone had a similar solution.

    Thank you

    Hi Geoff

    I guess this isn't problem in the system.
    It seems that your battery is defective and I recommend to contact the Toshiba authorized service provider in your country to get a battery replacement.

  • iTunes sorts only the new songs from the album artist; Cannot select multiple artists

    I had this problem for awhile now.  Whenever I have add a new song to my library, it will sort as a new artist, even if I already have this artist.  For example, I'll add a new Bayside song to my library, and despite the fact that I already have two albums of Bayside, the new song will sort itself separately from him, leaving me with two Baysides.  The only way to fix it is to add the album artist in both the novel and the stuff I already had.  It's incredibly frustrating, especially since iTunes allow me to select several artists both in the artist's view (although I can select several songs and albums - this seems to be a problem only when the view is the sidebar, as in the views of artist, Genre and composer).

    Help with fixing a problem (preferably both, although) it would be appreciated.

    I am currently using iTunes 12.3.2.

    It's a response of turingtest2 to a very similar to your question.  Maybe this will help.

    12 iTunes keeps having the same artist twice in the artist column

    Using the view songs grab all the tracks by an artist of the album given that you are having problems with and then read the information. Tab sort add set Album artist & artist album, X, click OK, and then return to . If you synchronize your content on a non - iOS such as classical iPod device, then you must also make sure artist is constant in the whole album. I propose generally invited and artists featured in the names of individual songs.

  • Question about password on the new Satellite A105 HARD drive

    I am the owner of a Satellite A105 and the hard drive was failing. I got a new hard drive but before I gave up on the current one I decided to wipe it clean and a few tools to see if it was a way to recover.

    Well, when wiping clean it restarts and then he showed me a message saying "password type of HARD drive internal" or something similar. I do not know the password so I can't use the hard disk more (or is there a way to reset the password?), but before you install the new hard drive I want to know if there could be a problem installing the new hard drive in the laptop without knowing the previous password.

    I mean, it locks the new hard drive or is it completely independent of the installed hard drive? The one I have is brand new, and I want to know if I plug it in and from the laptop are all I have to do?

    Hello

    If the HARD drive password has been activated and you don t usually know this password then the HARD drive is locked and can no longer be used.
    It s simply not accessible and it s not possible to remove this password.

    > I want to know if there could be a problem installing the new hard drive in the laptop without knowing the previous password. I mean, it locks the new hard drive or is it completely independent of the installed hard drive?
    I think that he should t be any problem with a new HARD drive.
    As I said the password is stored in the sector specials on the HARD drive. The old password should not exist on the new HARD drive (if the password has not been set).
