Unallocated on the C: drive memory access

My C: drive currently has a partition F:, an unknown partition and 51 unallocated designated G (black band at the top of its management section of the computer on disk 0).  How can I access this 51G?  I just want to reassign the system C: partition.

Thank you

Thanks db

Yes, I messed up with the drive when I shouldn't have.

Doesn't seem to be an easy way to reformat unallocated space.  It's ok that just trying to get enough available in memory until that by the old computer entirely abandoned, and which shouldn't be long now.

Thanks again

John

It is actually very easy to format the unallocated space.  What is more difficult, without a third-party disk management tool, is to combine multiple partitions on your hard drive.

Like what, you seem to have 4 pieces of the player: C, F, 'unknown' (which is probably your recovery partition provided by the manufacturer) and unallocated.

While you're in disk management, right-click on the unallocated space and select New Partition.  Follow the on-screen instructions in the wizard to select the amount of space in use, the drive letter must be attributed and the file system to use to format the new partition.  Directions, with photos, are here: http://www.theeldergeek.com/hard_drives_06.htm

If you want to combine (merge) the partitions, Easeus Partition Manager is free for home use.

  • Upgrade the HARD drive, memory and display on Satellite A30 921 driver

    I got a model a30-921, satellite phone for two years now. I would ask someone who could help me how to put my hard drive from 40 to the majority and the memory to 1 g. and also where can I find the latest driver for ati mobility radeon igp 9000.

    Thank you and looking forward to here from you soon.

    Hi Remelito,

    I use a 80 GB hard drive in my SA30 and I suspect it would probably work with a 100 GB drive. However, as portable hard drives tend to suffer ruptures busiest I think their close office 80 GB is perfectly o.k. for me. I tend to have 25-30 GB used with the rest of the temporary files during editing of the videos etc. The hard drive in the A30 is usually under the optical drive to remove all first in order to access the hard drive.

    Your A30 can be upgraded to a maximum of 2 GB of RAM in two slots. Currently, you will have 2 X 128 MB or 2 X 256 MB modules of RAM installed. You can get the modules of memory in the sizes of 128 MB, 256 MB, 512 MB or 1 GB. the following URL provides information on reference numbers (the United Kingdom site), but you can Google for a suitable provider.

    Toshiba unfortunately do not provide regular updates to their display drivers (at least in my experience). Like you, I have an ATI Mobility Radeon 9000IGP in my SA30 and I resorted to a driver Omega catalyst in order to play newer games. I ran this Omega driver for many months now with still no Bul.

  • Reading binary Dump using the DMA (Direct Memory Access)

    Hi all

    We are trying to measure short-term frequency using the SR620 (frequency meter) via a GPIB-USB connector. We are trying to understand how to work the controls GPIB, and it seems that you normally send a query and then ask him to read what says the instrument. However, as we try to make a measure of frequency stability in the short term, we use the binary Dump command (BDMP - explained in the manual, link below). To read this data, you do not use the standard playback function, you use this process called base (DMA, Direct Memory Access). The maual speaks DMA and the example code in the maual seems to use DMA to read the data that results.

    We have been able to trigger the display of "binary output" on the instrument using LabVIEW and interactive control via the NOT-MAX. The question now is: How do we implement DMA by using LabVIEW? More specifically, how we implement DMA reading of the SR620. It doesn't seem to be anything close to it in the code of LabVEIW included. There are examples that use the DMA with IVIs, but we had difficulties to change to work with the SR620 code.

    Useful links:

    Manual for SR620: http://www.thinksrs.com/downloads/PDFs/Manuals/SR620m.pdf

    Possible example DMA? : https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-9893

    How to make DMA: http://www.ni.com/white-paper/4534/en/

    Note: When we did not step 1 passed because we have problems adding a new target of the FPBA, because there is "".

    Yes, in ' 89, you probably use a DMA to store the data fast enough.  In 25 years, things have become much faster.  What I did to somehting similar is to save the data to a file as it is being read.  If you want more performance, use a producer/consumer.

  • Messages from the C drive memory

    I started having a message not enough memory for the C drive a few days ago.

    I have a gateway with Windows Vista Home Premium laptop.

    Windows is updated automatically, and I sometimes have to update it manually.

    I use Microsoft Security Essentials to protect my computer and continue to say that my computer is protected, and that no threats were detected. I run a Quick Scan daily and a full Scan weekly. It is updated daily.

    I use disk cleanup and Disk Defragmenter at least once a week.

    The last thing I installed was a software program, that I bought there is almost 4 months, to help clean and compact the registry of my computer, in order to help speed up the performance of my computer.

    During the process of cleaning, compaction and laundering of deleted files, is most needed, in the last months, I had been seeing about the same amount of memory available for the past few months for drive C (86.6 GB) and recovery drive D (3.14 GB).

    Then, in just a matter of 2 or 3 days, I started to receive messages from memory to the C drive.

    Available memory on the C drive went from 86.6 GB to 454 MB unexpectedly in just a few days.

    I ran the Diagnostic Microsoft memory tool, which indicated that there is no memory error.

    Hoping that I might be able to free up some space on the C drive, I deleted most of the entries on my list of favorites.

    I've been watching all the programs installed on my computer, but I don't think that any of them are not needed. And none of them use more than a few MB of space.

    I am still reviewing each of the articles or short videos, which I had downloaded over a year ago to assist me in my studies, to see if I might be able to get by without that none of them, hoping that remove anything could improve the available memory on the C drive.

    Microsoft mentions the warning signs of a low disk space, whereas we could take steps to avoid any data loss.

    Anyone have any suggestions for other diagnoses I could try running?

    In the meantime, I will continue to read the information on the use of my computer Gateway and Windows Vista Home Premium, as well as try to read articles on the Microsoft Web site.

    I would like suggestions of any person, who suffered a similar, unexpected and unexplained loss of memory on disk C and how you could improve your memory.

    Hello

    The last thing you need is a registry cleaner.

  • Access to the C drive after refresh error

    Yesterday when I booted up my pc, I got an error and it started auto repair. Repair auto falied. My C drive is almost full so I used cmd and free space then did an update of the system. The update went well, but after that whenever I try to access the C drive it says: 'access denied '. Under the name it shows "NTFS". Given that windows 8 has been installed in C itself, now I can't open system tools. Not even the properties of the drive C. I tried 'icacls' and 'takeown' but in vain. I had a lot of important things in the C drive, so it would be a real pain to format. I tried to use Linux to mount the drive, still cannot access it.  PS I want to know there is another way, I can access the files and make a backup of them? Or just to resolve "access denied"?

  • No access to the DVD drive - 38 error code

    Update Driver published 07/07/08 to 23:59 has been installed on my system as made by Toshiba Tempo but rebooting my machine, I get error 38 (according to Vista) that prevents the new driver installation as the old pilot is resident in memory... ?? Effectively, this means that I can't access or see my DVD player more in other ways than in the page Manager devices Control Panel. Option driver restore is not available, perhaps because it was an update of the firmware. The message on the device properties page is as follows:

    Windows cannot load the driver for this hardware device because a previous instance of the device driver is still in memory. (Code 38)

    The installed updatre was frmwre-20080707134447. It includes an Adobe document that tells you what to do and how to ensure that your drive needs to be refreshed, which was easy to follow and loose my machine.

    I tried to uninstall the device and the driver, but whenever I have to reload the same error occurs.

    I'm really impressed and quite embarrassed, because it is a recommended Toshiba firmware update done using their system of Tempo, ideas or advice welcome.

    BUT

    Since this amazing new 'hold option on GO in the Finder menu to see the invisible library feature' (sarcasm) requires your operating system to be started, I can't access the bookmarks folder in the library.

  • Several Thunderbird in different OS on the same computer to access profile on common logical drive

    I installed Windows 8.1 under another OS on a machine who already have Windows 7 (and Thunderbird). The hard disk is partitioned and you Bird profile files are on a different logical drive available to both operating systems having the same name of player.

    I met two problems:

    1. While the new facility to Win 8.1 you Bird sees all mail folders and messages (and can get new messages from the POP3 account, this configuration does not see also within this same profile address books, and)

    2. it does not correctly send SMTP (even with the same account settings.

    Regarding the last, I remember working with you Bird and its predecessor as the SMTP password has been set from the first use, but never appeared for editing purposes; the only time wherever he appeared was during the creation of a new source of SMTP. In this case, I don't see where I can re - enter the SMTP password. And, I tried to create a new configuration of SMTP, but it did not help. I have entered the correct password, but it failed. Any ideas on how I can get this set up?

    With address books, even if this new facility you Bird knows where the profile (as evidenced by the fact that he doesn't see mail folders and messages), he does not see the address books. Still, I don't see where there is the setting of the location of the address book. I looked for the familiar file that tells the program where to find everything, but I could not find in this new facility to Win 8.1.

    Any ideas on these two issues would be greatly appreciated!

    I finally found the answer. I was able to display the users folder in Win 8.1. I just copied files of Thunderbird of the Win 7 Users\UserName\AppData\Local Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming files directory and directory to the same location on the 8.1 users folder.

    As soon as I did that and restarted my SMTP has been fixed and all address books were available. (And of course, it still works in the world of Win 7, too).

    From what I can glean the data in these records communicate key information at the Thunderbird not covered by the option setting for the folder in the program itself.

    I don't know if the copy of these records is this 3rd party promise to help with the relocation of existing facilities, but should be.

    As a reminder, I try 8.1 win on the same computer as a pre-existing Win7. I wanted to use my same familiar programs, including obviously Thunderbird, with the same configuration and access to the books of mail and same address located on a common additional logical drive.

    Copy these files to the new operating system, as well as pointing to the new installation of program to the existing profile of you bird accomplished all of this.
