If you convert the dynamic disk, you will not be able to boot the operating system from any volume on the disk (except the current boot volume). are you sure you want to continue to yo? "If I keep the i receive msg" a dynamic disk are not supported with the server configuration or the operating system. dynamic disks are not supported on clusters"but tht partition shows that 205 GB is not allocated
Please help me

This allows to merge with your current C partition unallocated space, and then leave him alone...

You want the free version of House.

HP machines already have the maximum of FOUR partitions on the disk.

  1. System reserved
  2. C
  3. HP tools
  4. Recovery partition

If you want to make room for backups and save them, you should do this to an external hard drive.

  • Activate Windows 8.1 clear partitions of hard disk other than Windows?

    Hi all

    I just had my motherboard replaced because the earlier failed. Now I need to activate Windows 8.1 with a different product key (the one given to me by the Dell technician).

    My concern is that I double Windows and Ubuntu 8.1 boot, so I have a Ubuntu partition and a Windows partition. If I activate Windows, will be that rag on my Ubuntu partition? Really want to be wiped out because of all the customizations of the research that I do...

    Thank you

    Hello

    Thanks for writing on the Dell Community Forum.

    The answer to that would be 'no '. Windows 8.1 activation would not effect the Ubuntu partition. The partitions will be done if you are doing a new installation of Windows.

    However, it is always recommended to have a return to the top of your data before you try anything related to partitions.

  • Impossible to 'System' to defrag Portion of the hard disk on Windows 7 Pro or Windows 8 Pro dvt7-3000

    I have a laptop HP Pavilion dvt7-3000 CTO that has a single disk drive hard 500 GB.  The operating system has been improved in Windows7 Pro (64-bit) to Windows 8 Pro (64-bit), but the problem occurs in both operating systems.  When conducting the defragmentation of the different hard disks (C:\ D:\, HP tools and system), the percent of the "System" drive which is fragmented never changes, while the % fragmented adequately for other readers going to 0%.  Over time, the system part of the hard disk rose to 27% fragmented.  How to defragment this drive?

    Hello

    The system partition contains the boot files and recovery for Windows 7 environment and should not be défragmentée.  It will always appear to be fragmented and it is quite normal - force this partition defragment would almost certainly avoid the Windows startup.  In addition, the fragmentation in this small partition has absolutely no effect on performance.

    For much the same reasons, the recovery partitions or HP_TOOLS must be défragmentées.

  • FAT32 option not available to format the hard disk during Windows 7 installation

    I have a computer of Windows 10.  The owner wants to put on Windows 7.  I change the hard drive on the mbr to gpt.  But with the BIOS to TPG, I read that it, the bios would accept FAT32 hard drive.  I don't seem to have this option only NTFS.  Question: How to format a drive in FAT32.

    Hi John,.

    Thanks for posting your question on the Microsoft community.

    Thank you for details on the issue.

    Before you begin, note that the FAT32 file system has size limitations. You cannot create a FAT32 partition greater than 32 gigabytes (GB). In addition, you cannot store a file greater than 4 GB on a FAT32 partition. If the partition you want to format is larger than 32 GB, NTFS format may be a better option.

    However, I suggest you use the steps in this article and check if it helps.
    Reference:

    https://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc730730.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396

    Important notes:
    BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

    Converting a hard disk partition or volume from NTFS to FAT32 requires that you reformat the partition, which deletes all the data on this subject. Be sure to back up data that you want to keep before you begin.

  • Cannot access files on hard disk on windows xp, after I worked with it on win 7.

    Cannot access files on external hard drive on windows xp, after that I worked with him on Victory 7.I can see the file, but he says "is not accessible. access is denied. " Can someone help me?

    As you can guess, this is a permissions problem.  Here, it makes a difference if you have XP Home or Pro you have to safe boot mode to change permissions in the House.

    My crystal ball says that your external drive is formatted with the NTFS file system.  When you connected to Windows 7 (or any other computer besides), the files have been added that this user permissions apparently understood that only Win 7 has access to.  There are several ways to handle this...

    Is to save on all your files and reformat the external hard drive with a FAT32 file system and then support files.  You will have no problems of permissions with FAT32, but you can't have any higher than 4 GB single file either.

    Another way is as an administrator, to 'Ownership' of all the files on the disk
    "How appropriate a file or a folder in Windows XP"
       <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/308421 >
    but this could get old if the drive moves back.

    Yet another approach is to give "Everyone" full access to everything on the drive.  This may or may not protect against new folders or files added, but may be worth a try:
    As a user administrator, open a command window:
    Start-> Run-> "cmd".
    Then, enter the command:
    CACLS E:\/t/e/c/g everyone: F
    (where I am assuming that your external drive is mounted as "E:" - change of real player)

    I hope that something more top is useful...

  • Partition of hard disk on Tecra 8100

    I changed the 12 GB of HARD drive with a 40 GB HARD drive. But I couldn't partition this time. The last time with the help of this forum I had partitioned the 12 GB for use with Win 98 and XP. I think you forgot the procedure to partition the HARD drive. I think it's during the initial data recovery CD installation when asked me to creat partition (if any). This time, I don't see such a request. Please help because without XP a lot of my devices work... no drivers.

  • Look at one of these two hard disks in Windows

    Hi guys

    Sam X 200 m/n: PSPBUA-00N007 running a Vista Ultimate operating system.

    I wanted to see if I can get Windows to recognize the two hard drives as a single. I tried to change the 2nd HARD disk to a dynamic and extending of the primary HARD drive, but it doesn't seem to work.

    Can I do this in Windows? Or is the OEM Toshiba which prevents me from doing this?

    Any suggestion would be fantastic.

    Hello

    what you would have is a RAID stripe both of your HDD´s. But is there a RAID controller installed in this machine? I Don t think so and even if yes, then you need to reinstall your operating system, but you must first create a RAID 0 stripe.

    Because the machine (as I know) is not equipped with a RAID controller, then a regular SATA controller you will have no chance.

    • When he is successful, just before the start of the operating system, the boot in diagnostic mode to start (with fast start disabled) I can hear only a single beep

    What I tried to do:

    • I changed the BIOS setting to force booting only from hard drive, cut off from any other starting device.
    • Also, changed from AHCI mode to compatibility for hard drive, but without help.
    • Turned off the coast of quick start, but during the startup process, there is no specific error indicated

  • Creating a DVD from HP restore Partition of hard disk

    OK, let's go.  We have three computers in this House.   One is an HP 2004 775th with XP that was suggested be sent to pasture.   I agree to this.  My other computer is a HP Pavilion p6750f with Win 7 Home 2011.  Large computer and has no problem.  I want to keep this PC by business unit and buy a refurbished on ebay as a HP Compaq 8000 with Win 7 Pro 64 bit.  This should be Uncategorized at 10 for Microsoft Windows gives the OK.

    The majority of these 8000 HP on ebay have the disk hard 'original' wiped and reinstalled with new Windows 7 Pro 64-bit software.   Some say that the hard drive has the "restore disk partition hard rule."

    Now the big question.   With original Windows 7 Pro 64-bit clean wiped from the HD and a new install of Win. 7, I'll be able to make a DVD-restore/recovery Partition on the hard drive?

    That question seems to be is "I'll be able to make my own recovery DVDs?"  As shown in This DOCUMENT?  The answer is probably not.  Unless the previous owner includes the recovery of the purchase value.  These units are most likely end the lease to a company, which means that they are erased clean from any software that may have been installed.  The inclusion of an operating system is to facilitate the resale.

  • Messed up partitions and hard disks into recovery mode!

    I got the bootmrg is missing an error code.  So then I had to download a http://neosmart.net/blog/2008/windows-vista-recovery-disc-download/ vista recovery disk and I then placed this .iso file on my usb drive using http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/.  Here I probably should have simply chosen to restore my system from recovery mode, but I decided to mess around with the partitions.  Now, I don't know what I did to my readers and partitions.  Help, please!

    Hello

    This "Recovery" disc Neosmart is not a recovery disk to put anything back to the factory settings.

    He fact that Startup Repair, restore the system to an earlier date, etc.; It's not not to reinstall Vista.

    "but I decided to mess around with the partitions.  Now, I don't know what I did to my readers and partitions.  Please help! »

    And we have no idea what you did to your partitions either.

    I suggest you reinstall Vista; choice regardless of the method, you can go to the methods provided here.

    Different ways to reinstall Vista:

    There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

    You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

    You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

    How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm

    "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

    And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer (if you have not destroyed it).

    The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

    Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

    Ask them to the right sequence of button...

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

    "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

    And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

    And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.
