• cannot expand the c partition in unallocated space

  I have a HP Pavilion dv5224nr laptop running Windows XP.  I've been low on disk space, so I came on this forum to find out how to remove the recovery partition, since I have the recovery CD from HP.  Now that I deleted the partition through disk management, it only allows me to expand the C partition in unallocated space left by removing the partition D.  "Extend partition" is not an option in the menu when I right click.  I also tried going through the "diskpart" command prompt, select the volume and him asking to "extend".  I received a message that it was unable to extend the volume.  How can I recover the 12 GB of space on my C drive?  Thank you.

  I downloaded a free utility called Easeus Partition Master and it worked very well for resizing my partition C.  I also used explores the function to watch the 1 gig unknown partition and it wasn't empty, so I left it alone.  Thanks for your help!

  Hello

  You can erase your entire hard drive with command prompt from booting from the Windows installation disc and run the utility "diskpart", clear full hard drive, make new partitions and install the operating system.

  (a) start the computer from the Windows installation disc.

  (b) click on 'Next' at the first prompt.

  (c) click on "Repair your computer."

  (d) click "next".

  (e) click on "Command prompt."

  (f) type "diskpart" without the quotes, and then press "Enter".

  (g) list disk 'type' without the quotes, and then press "enter".

  (h) type "select disk 0" without the quotes and replacing '0' by the actual number of the car you want to erase.

  (i) type "clean" without the quotes, and press "Enter." The drive is now completely erased.

  (j) restart the computer.

  (k) through the installation of Windows 7 with regular steps.

  I hope this helps.

• Create an additional partition

  Hi people,

  Hoping you can help please

  I created a new virtual machine with a single partition (C:\) which has 20 GB is allocated to the.  However, I need to add an extra partition (Z:\) and assign about 250 GB it (so I can use it for data, etc.).  There are a lot of space in the data store to achieve this.

  I'm a little shaky on how to go about it.  I remember reading somewhere that the best way is to create an additional vmdk?  Is that correct and if so, how is it "mapped" in the existing virtual machine?

  Thank you very much

  Right-click the virtual machine, change settings, add the hard drive.  The wizard will guide you through the configuration, the only thing you really need to change is the size of the disk.  You do not have to manually map the drive of the virtual machine, the wizard updates the configuration for the computer virtual (.vmx) file for you.  Then go to disk management in the VM (assuming that it is a virtual Windows machine) and analyze the disks.  The new drive appears, and you can format as you want.

• How to restore after deleting a partition in unallocated space on my hard drive?

  HI, I have recently removed a partition of my hard drive on windows Vista Home Basic. I removed it because I needed to find the hard drive space on the main user profile.

  I found, after following the instructions on how to remove the partition that the partition has been deleted, but the space was not available for use on the main user.

  I couldn't find any information on how to restore the space unallocated on the C: drive, so if there is someone out there who can help me, I'd appreciate the help! : o).

  Hi geddron1976,

  Is "unallocated" space right next to the C: partition, that is to the right of the C: partition? If yes go to control panel and click the Administrative Tools icon. In the Administrative Tools window, click computer management. In the window of computer managgement, click on disk management and you will then see a view of your disks. Click right on your C: drive, and in the menu drop-down, select "Extend Volume".  A wizard will appear. In the 'select amount of space in MB' type the amount sdpace you want to extend the partition. If you want this then let the total in the State. Now, click Next, followed by the finished product. The c: drive should now be extended in your unallocated space.

  If the C: partition is 'no' right next to the unallocated space, then you will not be able to extend the partition - not with the windows disk in any case management application. To do this you will need a third party application of partitioning, it is also a little more complex.

• 14FR (PQSERVICE) recovery partition becomes unallocated space

  Hi all

  I have an Aspire 5745 G laptop with Windows 7 HP x 64 preload. My HARD drive accidentally becomes a dynamic disk for narrowing the 'C' drive by using a 3rd party partition management software. I converted it to the base using the same tool. Now my OEM 14FR reserved partition disappeared. It shows as an unallocated space in the Device Manager window.

  

  Can I still get back without going through recovery discs?

  Thanks before.

  Hi osandakj

  Bad news is, if the recovery partition is listed as unallocated, it has been deleted.

  You will certainly need to buy for your laptop recovery disks!

• Extend partition in unallocated space

  I have a drive C:, Simple, Basic, NTFS healthy (System, boot, Page file...). To the left of it, I have 200 GB of unallocated space. When I right click on C:, extend the volume is not one of the options. I need to extend the drive c in the space of unallocted.

  Thank you.

  For Windows 7 extend a volume, the unallocated space must be on the right of this volume as read in management records.

  You need a third party program partition to do what you want.

• I need help to create a new partition of the drive c. main on my laptop

  OK, I already tried to create a new partition and it did, but the new partition I created has become "unallocated" I don't know why, I have read the information online and they say that you cannot remove a player from the "unallocated" partition, so I am trying to create a new partition on this drive "unallocated". when its almost finished, I get warning all the time

  the operation you selected will convert the disk from basic to dynamic disk selected s. If you want to convert the disks to dynamic disks, you will not be able to boot operating systems from any volumes on the s drive (except the current boot volume). Are you sure you want to continue?

  I want to create a new partition on this disc, please help

  When I click Yes, it brings an error message saying, the 'dynamic disks are not supported on this operating system.

  I use Windows Vista Home premium

  Good info on above links.

  Read the related links section, also.

  Unallocated space is what it says it is: nothing.

  Normally, you right click on your existing drive > extend the Volume > makes a great.

  Or follow the instructions at the link above to make a second Partition to unallocated space...

  I have not tested your example but I think you can merge only TWO partitions in a merge operation, so if you try to merge the three partitions you should actually do this in two stages, rather than in a single step. In addition in the case of range partitions, were adjacent to merge, but this seems to be the case in your example.

  Kind regards

• Satellite L750 - unallocated space after custom partition

  Hello

  I bought a new Satellite L750 of 640 GB HD and made a custom 400 GB for C: partition and expecting a ~ 200 GB for a D:; with the remaining GB in an HD hidden for the restoration of the window use.

  After the complete installation and start-up of the window, I can only see a C: or my GB of 200 ~ 400 becomes not allocated. No other player number is displayed.

  Can someone help me how I can create an E: or what that lead to make use of this no allocated space.
  How can I access? I have to redo the entire system again and just send it to C: and forget a second drive?

  H.E.L.P. Please.

  Hello

  I hope that you have created a recovery disc before changing the partitions on the HARD disk.
  I guess you HDD recovery would not work after the partitions has been changed.

  In any case, all partitions can be verified in disk management.
  Right-click on computer-> Manage
  Here, you go to disk management

  Generally, all partitions and unallocated space must be visible. Here, you can create a new partition or can change and change the partitions again.

• Vista SP2 Installation fails (error 800706BE Code) via Windows Update

  I am running Windows Vista Business (32-bit) SP1 and I noticed that Vista SP2 is available for download by manually checking in Windows Update last night.  After having seen that it is a large download (more), I started the download, left my PC and left the House.  When I got home, my screensaver was away and when I attamped my password to disable the screen saver and see where I was in the process of updating, my password did not work.  Then I did a hard reboot but then could not connect under my admin user account.  I've then logged in as my wife (standard user - no password) and went to Windows Update where I noticed that the SP2 for Vista Installation fails (error 800706BE Code).  I spent most of last night and all today so far tried to solve this problem.  There are several problems here... When I click on "Install" in Windows Update, I get a message of "is not necessary: 1 update" (even when I look in the installed updates it says that the update failed).  If it is not necessary, then why is it listed as an important update that must be installed?  Endless loop... In addition, I'm not a password reset for my connection because I have a password saved on a flash drive.  Then I tried using all the older passwords that I remembered and none worked.  Shift caps lock was not on either.  I've logged in as my wife, went to the Microsoft Download page and eventually find the link to download the standalone version of SP2 Vsita, but after downloading the massive file, I didn't have the right to install it because I can not connect as an adminstator!

  (sigh) Can someone please help with this?  Thank you

  Naveen,

  Thank you very much for your suggestions!  Your suggestion of restarting, press F8 and choose "repair your computer" worked.  I was able to do a system restore and I chose a date where my old password was still in use (I had just been invited to change a few days before I tried to download Vista SP2).  In addition to losing my cookies and automatically complete IE8 - everything is back to normal.  I have not yet tried a 2nd try to SP2, and I'm very hesitant to do it now!

  Thank you once again!

  Make sure that you have free space in each drive for better performance. When free disk space reaches 200 megabytes (MB) or less in a car, you will be prompted to free space in the disk.

• I want to add to my main disk unallocated space. How can I do?

  original title: merge unallocated space!

  I want to add to my main disk unallocated space. How can I do?

  Hello

  Welcome to Microsoft Windows 7 answers Forum!

  Follow these steps below to expand your primary partition.

  1. right click on the partition (EX: C:\) you want to extend in the now unallocated partition and click Extend Volume.

  2. click on next to the Welcome to the Volume Wizard window extend

  3. Select the amount of space in megabytes that you want to use from the unallocated partition to use to extend this partition

  4. If you want to redo a partition, select all of the space available for this disc. If there is other disks with unallocated disk space, they would have shown during the selection available.

  Note: 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.

  5. click on next.

  6. click on finish in the window end extend

  You will now see the console with the new ready to use extended partition volume disk management.

  7. close the computer management.

  8. click on computer in the Start Menu and see your new Extened the volume partition.
