  • Remove the recovery drive and drive C on the internal drive of 2 2nd

    I installed a Kingston 120 GB SVP200S37A / 120G on my HP Pavilion dv7t-1000 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC with Windows 7 Professional.

    I took the cable USB and case provided with my package and plugged my old hard drive of 320 GB.

    Installed the SSDNow v + Series software and installed it.  At this point, I was happy to see my new Kingston 120 GB SSD and unplugged my old hard drive.

    Last week, I installed my old hard drive to 320 GB in my laptop.

    My current SSD is the C drive and disc HP_Recovery (D).

    My old drive is Local Disk F and Local Disk G.  Can I do this in a single drive?

    Is it possible for me to remove the HP_Recovery (D) drive then put it on to my second drive?

    Hello

    Unfortunately, the second Bay of your laptop drive isn't bootable - this is true for all of the dv7 series, so spend the recovery Partition of your SSD HARD disk will cause any recovery attempt fails.  If you want to use a player of the second span, it can only be used for extra storage.

    To make the drive in the second span in a single volume, you must do the following - keep in mind that this will destroy all data on the disk.

    Hold down the Windows key and press R.  In the run box, type compmgmt.msc , and then press ENTER.  Click disk management in the left pane and let readers load upward.

    For all volumes shown on the Second disk, right-click each in turn and select "delete the Volume.  When you are finished, you should have just "unallocated space indicated.  Click on this and select Format to start the wizard.  Windows 7 will affect a Volume label so if your happy with it, just leave the default.  File system is NTFS.  Allocation unit size must be left by default.  Select the option to perform a quick format if it is not already done.  Leave all the other default settings, and then click Ok, and then Ok to start the process.

    Once this done, your disk should now appear as a single volume when you look under the computer.

  • Remove the HARD drive recovery Partition

    Hello

    Does anyone know how to remove the recovery Partition HDD? I don't have any use for it as I repeated it CD, as well as images of partition stored on a network drive. I want that space to put a current image of my C: drive, rather than the initial installation.

    When I go to delete a partition or volume I get the errors. Resizing my computer laptop completely bombs with Paragon Disk Manager and I have to reinstall all partitions! Removing sub Vista it says volume is in use and delete may cause unexpected errors.

    If you really want to remove it, you might try Acronis Disk Director Suite. I never had any problems with it. A very good program.

    Furthermore, I think you mean that the Windows recovery environment and that s not a feature of Toshiba.
    Toshiba Recovery is only stored in a folder called HDDRecovery. It s not on a hidden partition.

    However, this good article is maybe interesting for you:

    Hello;

    Let me welcome you on the HP forums!

    The ONLY way to return to its original state of the recovery partition is to do a full erase of the hard drive and reconfiguration of the PC itself Žtat factory use HP Recovery Media - and, as said, that will delete EVERYTHING on the drive!

    If you have backups of the image, as you requested, then you really don't need to partition and can safely remove to reclaim that space.

    If Windows won't let you delete this partition, then try using this: Best Free Partition Manager for Windows | MiniTool Partition free

    Good luck

  • recovery drive (d) too full?

    The storage capacity of my recovery disc (d) shows that it is almost full with 14.7 GB used space with a total capacity of 16.7 GB. That only leaves me with a little more than 1 GB remaining. Is it normal to be so full? If this is not the case, how do I delete data not required drom this player? Also, how this data get accumulated? I searched all recovery options I can think of and can't seem to find anything that could be causing my system to be backups of recovery that I have not programmed. I deleted the system restore so that the last point. Clean up system files, disk cleanup, etc. The D drive shows that it has been compressed to save space

    I have 64 bit Desktop HP Pavilion, running Windows 7 Premium. My C drive conversly has 37 GB of space used with 411 GB of free space remaining. I would be grateful someone some light on this for me. As far as I know, this condition can be quite normal.

    eyemchase,

    Welcome to the HP Forum.

    Don't worry about this.  Not add, remove or change anything in recovery.

    The recovery Partition is better and happy like this.

    Recovery is used to restore your computer in case of failure; the partition has within itself all the necessary tools to rebuild the main operating system as it was when the computer is new and clean.

    What is recovery (D hard?)

    Comment

    Unless you really need to, I recommend that you do not remove the recovery partition, that is, do not delete it.  Sometimes people do after their recovery disks (you have made backups of recovery, right?) -and then these same people regret having deleted the partition later.  Sometimes people delete the partition of the accident before making their recovery backups.  It's sad.

    Click on the Thumbs-Up Kudos to testify and say thank you.

    While I strive to reflect best practices of HP, I do not work for HP.

    Thank you for visiting the Microsoft answers community.

    It sounds like when you run recovery, you formatted and reinstalled in the image of the plant, which has deleted all of your D: and reinstalled to default recovery for your D: image.

  • How to reinstall vista on the recovery drive D?

    About 2 years, a Sunday, my hard drive crashed and I was totally novice in time (as much as now, more I forgot the documentation provided with it, my "old" laptop Gateway) so I called a computer repair place listed on Craigslist (no classes please) and said that they could fix and I should just bring him.  Well, I need desperately so I took ("in" is a private home).  Hours later, I got a call that it has been fixed.  They did replace some hardware and the computer was working again, but they gave me the 'good news' that he had thrown an installation of Windows 7 free of charge.  I wasn't happy, but as I quickly bought a new computer with Windows 7 on it anyway, I learned to love it.  With a new laptop, I don't use it much anyway.

    A hinge fails to my 'new' HP laptop and a COMPUTER technician who is a friend is fixing to me.  In the meantime, I have to use this "old" laptop.  He began to act up and I did a system restore, which did not help.  I have recently met a disc of the operating system for this 'old' computer and it's a good thing because little time after the system restore, I received continuous messages of MSE I wasn't "authentic" Windows  It got really teed OFF... some good news-free-install, right?  I certainly didn't use software counterfeit... the only inconvenience factor is more than enough for me to come back on the right path.

    I decided to re - install my real honest to-God-Vista from the bridge of the operating system disk included.  I never had anything like the front and of course, when I was asked where to put the installation, I wasn't sure and so I put it on the C drive, thinking (just think) that things could spill over into the D recovery drive.  He does something like that.

    I tried to go through the steps I used to re - install Vista but it doesn't seem to want to pay attention from now to the OS disk when I use F10 at startup.  What can I do to get this on the recovery disk?  I think it should be there.

    I've already replaced all sorts of files, etc. from the backup I made before I did the re-install, if that makes a difference any.

    Please give me some instructions to get my OS on my D recovery drive files.  Thank you.

    Hello

    You can't put it on the recovery disk (Partition); end of the story.

    Your recovery Partition on your hard drive was photographed during the production of your computer by the manufacturer.

    If it is destroyed, removed, etc., damaged you cannot replace / reinstall or repair.

    You have the DVD anyway.

    See you soon.

    4 right click on the volume (EX: E:\ ) you want to remove and click Remove the Volume.
    NOTE: If your hard disk is currently set up as a single partition, then do not remove it. You can also delete a system partition (OS isntalled on), boot partition or partition that contains a virtual memory paging file, because Vista needs this information to start correctly. You can use the Vista installation disc to remove it.

    5 click Yes at the confirmation prompt. (See screenshot below)
    NOTE: This will leave the partition as unallocated (empty) with no drive letter.

    WARNING: It is recommended that you do not extend a volume on a disk with another disk free space. If one of the disks has a hardware failure, all data on that partition (volume) will be deleted.

    Hello

    It seems that you are confused between the D: computer manufacturer recovery partiton and the MALICIOUS software called Windows Recovery

    they are 2 completely Different tthings

    and you can't buy the manufacturers recovery partition; It is already on your hard drive

    your computer is infected with malware

    Read and follow ALL the information on the link below

    Windows Recovery is a program of analysis and optimization of fake computer that displays false information in order to scare you into believing that there is a problem with your computer. Windows Recovery is installed via Trojan horses that display fake error messages and warnings of security on the infected computer. These messages will state that there is something wrong with the hard drive of your computer, and then suggests that you download and install a program that can solve the problem. When you click on these alerts, Windows recovery will be automatically downloaded and installed on your computer.

    Once installed, Windows Recovery will be configured to start automatically when you log in to Windows. Once started, several error messages appear when you try to launch programs or delete files. Windows recovery will then prompt you to scan your computer, which will then find a variety of errors, he said, he can't fix until you purchase the program. When you use the defragmentation tool called it will specify that it should run in Mode safe and show then a background in Mode Safe false who pretended to defragment your computer. As this program is a scam do not be scared by buying the program when you see its alerts.

  • 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

    Hi John,.

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site.

    Here's a work around to change the installation path by default for applications of the D: drive to the C: drive or which will drive you want from the registry.

    Important: this message contains information about how to edit the registry. Make sure that you back up the registry before you edit it. Make sure you know how to restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up, restore, and modify the registry, click on the number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

    Back up the registry

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/back-up-the-registry

    To access the Registry Editor:

    1. Click Start and type regedit in the search field.
    2. In the list, click on regedit programs.
    3. Navigate to the following location HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion
    4. Now search for a key in the right pane called ProgramFilesDir.

    You should see that the value of something as D: \Program Files.

    5 double-click on the value and change it to what you want, for example: C:\Program Files. From then on, whenever you install a new program, Windows will use the new location in the default installation directory.

    I hope this helps.
