problems of partition of Windows 7 e9270f

I thought it should be a simple task to partition the hard drive (1 TB) into 4 roughly equal partitions (including the operating system) with the version of HP's Windows 7, 64-bit installed. It is not the case. If you want to do something like that, don't forget to do your own system restore disks first. I don't have and restore disks that HP sent never worked. It seems that there is some sort of Gummy deposit on the disks. There may be another series coming from customer support, but I can't wait any longer. I've now ordered a Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade disc with the thought of separation somewhere during the installation.

Why Microsoft has something as fundamental as the so hostile user of disk partitioning?

If anyone has any suggestions on this, I'm listening. Thank you!

EB, here is a good FREE partition manager that will work with Win7.  Give it a try to see if it will work for you.

  • multi (0) disk (0) rdisk (0) partition (2) \WINDOWS\system32\DRIVERS\isapnp.sys

    My laptop does not start correctly.

    In a normal boot, the screen flashes the dell logo then turns off.

    It will start using the f12 key for a menu that gives the following options: drive HARD internal, CD/DVD/CD-RW drive, configuration of the BIOS, Diagnostics

    OR to the Windows Advanced Options Menu:

    If I select Safe mode it tries to start then stalls on which seems to be to halfway through the config/sys.  The last element that appears is:

    multi (0) disk (0) rdisk (0) partition (2) \WINDOWS\system32\DRIVERS\isapnp.sys

    I can hear the fan, ect always on and the screen is black with half of it filled with data as above and the but no activity.

    OK, when I run the "diagnosis" in the dell boot menu, it passes all the tests.  At the end a popup appears: "Dell Diagnostic Utility Partition boot" "Press any key to continue."  When I press on it all disappears them text and I get the blue screen.

    I'm online on my desktop now if I can respond immediately.  Thanks in advance for any help

    Maybe one day the "ask a question " of forums XP dialog box will ask these questions automatically when a new thread is started so I don't have to ask every time.  It might even be possible to solve a problem in a single response when enough information is provided.

    Please provide additional information on your system:

    What is your system brand and model?

    What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

    The afflicted system has a CD/DVD drive work?

    You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

    This symptom often means that your system is of a malicious software.

    If you choose to start safe mode, and the last thing you see on the screen looks like this:

    multi (0) disk (0) rdisk (0) partition (1) \WINDOWS\system32\DRIVERS\isapnp.sys

    If your system hangs in Mode safe on the isapnp.sys file, you will need to search for a driver of zero-byte length file in the following folder:

    c:\Windows\System32\Drivers

    Of course, you have to boot the system on something in order to access the hard drive to find the suspicious file and get rid of it.

    If you have any installation CD bootable XP real where you start in the XP Recovery Console, or you are not sure what type of bootable CD, you have, make a CD of bootable XP or Hiren Boot CD Recovery Console and do not forget.

    There is no XP media needed to make a Hiren Boot CD or a bootable XP Recovery Console.  Then you can access the folder and check to see if there is such a suspicious file and take action.

    Once you're booted to the CD of your choice, navigate to the following folder (assuming that XP is installed on your C volume):

    c:\Windows\System32\Drivers

    Looking for a file that ends with an extension .sys and zero bytes in length.  The file can also have a curious name because she may have been generated at random.

    If you are in the XP Recovery Console, issue the following command in the c:\windows\system32\drivers folder:

    dir *.sys

    Files Scrolls one screen at a time.  Look at the list of files with .sys extensions and their lengths.  You don't need to worry about directories...  If you see a file with a .sys extension which is zero byte, it is suspect.

    If you use the Mini Mode XP a Hiren s boot CD (which works as Office XP), just navigate to the folder of the my computer desktop icon and locates the suspect files.

    You really want to delete the suspicious file once you get running and you run some scans for malware, but if you are not sure what is the suspicious file, or if it might be necessary, just rename the suspicious file for now, in case you are not sure.

    For example, if you find zigxrtml.sys folder had a length of zero byte, rename it:

    Rename zigxrtml.sys zigxrtml.bad

    Renaming or removing the suspicious file to get the system running is not resolved the problem.  It is the symptom of the problem.

    The problem is your system is infected by malicious software and you should always follow up with a few scans to remove infections.

    Once your system is running, followed with MBAM and SAS to be sure that the affliction has really been removed.

    Reduce the risk of malware by running some scans.

    Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs:
    Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
    They can be uninstalled later if you wish.
    Restart your computer and solve the outstanding issues.

    Do, or do not. There is no test.

    You should be able to (I'm virtually certain it's possible) If you have the appropriate permissions or property rights in your Vista partition to allow access of the user of Windows7 or users of Windows7.  It's the way it works with XP and Vista and I suspect that it is essentially the same thing here.  You may need to add the users to the Vista partition/folders/files in Windows7 using regardless of their process (it varies probably Vista so I won't bother posting method Vista to do).

    What happens when you restart the computer, and until the Apple logo appears and you hold down the button "C"? You are offered the opportunity to boot from your OS X disk?

    https://support.Apple.com/en-us/HT201255

    For problem number two, check out the following:

    Optimize the display of the scale and the problems of scaling on Windows 7

    For problem number 3, how much space was allocated on boot camp drive?

    I recommend not more than 100 GB if you plan to install Windows and programs such as office in addition to create data. It must also take into account files for updates of drivers such as music, videos, photos, Documents that can easily fill up the drive.

    You will need to remove Boot Camp disk by booting to OS X, and recreate it.

    Restart the OS X and proceed to recreate with the right settings.

  • Creating partitions in windows 7

    OK, this is how my drive looks like. I have 3 primary partitions, including the system reserved drive and the boot disk. I want to create is 2 more discs out of unallocated space of 25 GB to install ubuntu. When I tried to do, I got a warning saying that the drive to convert to custom and dynamic type can load another os from another partition. Even if I don't have another os right now, that I intend to install a. Now, I tried an external partition manager to create a new simple volume, but he asked me convert one of the primary drives a logic. I will lose all data in the process. Why Win 7 makes it so difficult to create additional partitions? Windows xp is so cool man.

    You are not well prepared for what you want to do, and as has been pointed out by Palcouk, your Windows 7 partition is much too small. You need to sort that first with a 3rd party partition manager...

    Aomei... http://www.aomeitech.com/aomei-partition-Assistant.html

    Increase the size of about 150 GB, has space to D drive.

    Then add the 28 GB on drive E. You can reorganize partition sizes once you have increased C.

    You now have a working PC where Windows 7 isn't going to crash.

    Your next priority should be to backup everything that you have stored on D and E, and for this you will need an external hard drive.

    Re Ubuntu, if you just want to try it, run it from the CD/DVD drive, but resist the temptation to do a full install. If you really install it, and you have a style desktop machine, buy a second hard drive, install in the case, disconnect the player from Windows and install Ubuntu. Reconnect the Windows disc.

    You can use the assignment of F keys on computer startup screen to select one or the other. "This is a configuration to boot" parallel ", not a"dual boot ". Parallel boot is much less of a problem and if ever you decide that Ubuntu is not for you, a manufacturer of hard disk utility will remove the partitions ext14 and the disk is available for Windows.

    If you have a laptop, I'd be tempted to do the same as above, by accepting that the swapping of disks inside and outside is not exactly convenient. However, if something goes wrong with Ubuntu, it will NOT affect the installation of Windows.

    Note that any major change to disk configurations can lead to data loss...

  • Removal of partition of Windows 7 from Dual Boot Windows 7/8

    I recently installed Windows 8 on PC from a parent, because it's the upgrade $ 14.99, uncertain about whether my parents would be as W8, I decided to double it start alongside W7.  However, my parent loved W8 and he now uses as its main operating system.  My problem is, how safely get rid of the partition of Windows 7? Try to remove it cause the laptop to be unable to boot because it seems that the boot files are still on the W7 partition.  Is there a way to make the W8 the 'boot' partition, perhaps by creating / copying the boot somehow files?

    Solved, here is how I fixed it in case someone else runs into a similar issue:

    1 installed and run EasyBCD on Windows 8

    2 open the BCD Backup/repair and C: set as default boot drive

    3 used Minitool Partition to delete the partition in which Windows 7 has been installed and extend Win 8 partition on unallocated space

    4 restarted, Dual Boot screen appeared, though there is only a single OS installed, so re-opened EasyBCD on Windows 8 and remove the entry from Windows 7 in Dual Boot menu

    Note that this is a VERY good idea to keep a Windows 8 installation disc/USB on hand at any time during this procedure, in case something goes wrong.

  • Problem with updates on Windows 8 - Configuration has failed & returning Exchange

    First of all

    I want to apologize for asking questions about the problem which has been solved so many times...

    ... and yet it seems that no solution applies to / solved my problem.

    Let me describe my situation and context "briefly":

    I have install Windows 8 Pro, I have installed in September 2012. I had been provided with Win 7 and Win 8 activation as a computer SCIENCE student keys during my studies. I have not used 8 win a lot since I preferred Win 7 and I only wanted to test the 'product '.

    Judging by the time when previous updates have been installed, the system was launched several times in March 2013, December 2013 and January 2014. After that, the system "folded" so far. When I launched the system on 26.07.2015 there was like 50 updates that have been prepared (or wanted to be installed... Let's say "pending"). About 30 of them installed successfully. Then I double-checked. I used to double check the availability of updates when some fail to install (mainly from my previous experience that sometimes an update is no longer necessary when another installs).

    Now, to the point...

    I have 133 major and 3 optional updates that want to be installed. Everything that I select (few of them), or all of them fail to install. Installation begins normally, then needs to restart (all) and during the nex to the top starting, the updates can "Configuring updates... 98% ' and then fail and are starting to go back.

    The system is more or less vanilla installation with some basic drivers and the 3DMarks so I doubt that I've caused this problem.

    I've been googling and try to solve this problem for 5 days now, here's what I found:

    1. first of all, I tried sfc / scannow to see if there is any corruption. I received the message that some files were corrupted and could not be repaired. The launch of 6 and 7 of this order, I finally got the "Windows Resource Protection has not found any breach of integrity." (it is true however that I tried a lot of solutions in the meantime). However before that, the CBS.log newspaper included information that:

    Cannot repair Member "utc.app.json" file

    (also of telemetry ".") "ASM - WindowsDefault.json" and I think that 'Amd64\CNBJ2530. PBO' have been mentioned... several times)

    But as I said, from this moment I do not have this problem.

    2. because I had problem with CFS, I tried DISM.

    ScanHealth gave:

    The component store is repairable.
    The operation completed successfully.

    However, RestoreHealth was not optimistic:

    The restore operation failed. Be the source of repair was not found or the comp
    onent store is not repairable.

    The journal includes:

    Preparation of control system was updated.

    Summary:
    Operation: Detect and repair
    Result of the operation: 0x0
    Last successful step: any operation is complete.
    Total of Corruption detected: 0
    CBS manifest Corruption: 0
    CBS damaged metadata: 0
    Corruption shows CSI: 0
    Corruption of the CSI metadata: 0
    The Corruption of the CSI Payload: 0
    Total fixed Corruption: 0
    Repaired CBS manifest: 0
    Manifesto of CSI repaired: 0
    Repaired CSI payload: 0
    CSI store metadata refreshed: true

    3. the 'solution' next I'm focused on a system reserved partition. I came to the information Windows 7 uses 100 MB Sys. Reserved partition while Windows 8 uses 350 MB. I think I stumbled on information that it can be connected to the problems so modified the partition of provision (safely, in regards to the system reserved partitions and Windows 8) and increased the extra partition of 250 MB. This however proves to not be connected.

    4. some sources claimed that C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution/download content may be the case. So after the Windows Update service has stopped I deleted the download content (I think on 1 try I deleted event pending.xml from WinSxS. Of course then I restarted the redownloaded updates of service, etc...

    5. I tried the update servers MS Windows Diagnostic.cab (just for the record, this tool renames pending.xml among others). This diagnosis is always problems no matter how many times I launch. It shows sometimes 2, sometimes 3 questions for example:

    Here are the main 'solutions' that I tried, but as you can guess, none of them worked. Just for the Windows registry has reported these problems viac Action Center:

    And I also found some information in WindowsUpdate.log:

    2015-08-02 01:27:28, error CSI 00000004@2015/8/1:23:27:28.681 (F) CMIADAPTER: failed. HRESULT = c004f01f [error facility = FACILITY_ITF, Code = 61471 (0xf01f)]

    Here, the infamous rollback is mentioned. I was not able to identify the exact update (or updated) what causes these cancellations so I hope it's something I could be helped with at least. The internet is full of KBs that this cause so I can't count on that, at least for now. I also want to note that I tried everything under boot. And also can not clean installation since I have no more join the MSDNAA where I had as a student activation key. I hope that I could upgrade to Windows 10 without him in the coming months, so that's why I concentrate on getting this environment to work and migrate to it in time.

    I'll be very grateful to anyone who can help me with this problem.

    In & out.

    John

    Given that no one could help you, I myself helped ^^.

    First of all, to all those who have problems with the fact that their updates install suddenly, you must change the settings for Windows Update. Change the option other than an automaticall installation (I used the automatic download, manual installation). In this way, you can install the updates in smaller batches. Personally, I installed updates to 5 or 10 (or almost). The updates that have been tens of MB, I installed only. What struck me most surprised, I could (at the time) to install all updates. In the case where you wouldn't you know at least certainly update you need to solve the problems.

    After all updates have been installed, I turned on the automatic download and installation.

  • With the help of Camp of Partition start, but impossible to find all Partitions of Windows

    Hello world

    I am a new user of Fusion 2.06, and I really need your help!

    I installed my WIndows 32-bit Vista under Boot Camp. I had three Windows partitions (one for the system, one for storage of files and one for the storage of games) and I used the disk of Windows Vista for these partitions Manager. If I use boot camp to start the windows, each partition can appear in Windows.  And now I use merge under the Partition Boot Camp to run Windows.  The problem is that I can't find the Windows partition two except the one Windows is installed.

    Can someone give me some advice on how to leave the two partitions of Windows appears in the merge? Thank you very much!

    I am very happy to hear that everything worked!

    I would recommend to not not re-partitioning the hard drive once again, unless you have all data backed up first. The current configuration of the partition is just too unconventional (partition tables GPT/MBR hybrids are problematic in general), so no changes more may be bad unless they are made with a lot of attention.
