Windows 7 Home Basic disk partition.

Yesterday I created a disk partition in my laptop of friends using Windows 7 home basic. Now, I am unable to send it back. When I try to format it by using the default settings the error I get is. "The dynamic disk is not supported by this server." Later, I got to know that dynamic disk is not supported by Home Basic. Now what to do? I am unable to use the 150 GB partition I've done unless I format it. Is it possible that I can use this space?

Create a separate partion to "ease the burden on partition win" is not actually going to achieve something IE doesn't go to lighten everything, leave them are part of this disk.

I guess that if you view disk 0 to disk management shows a system reserved about 100 MB, and C the boot partition, and you already have 4 partitions on basic and if you add another partition, it must be configured as dynamic.

You cannot convert dynamic to basic use in victory built tools.

When you create the recovery discs, and I hope that you have done this now, if you ever have to recover your system, you will lose all you have created the partitions and all data.

Bottom line, your goal/plan to create a separate partition is incorrect. Go back and expand C to consume all the free space.

  • Windows 7 Home Basic disk partition problem

    Hey.I have a problem while creating the partition.i right click on unallocated memory... you click on new simple volume... I finished installing successfully... in the last step in the configuration... when I clicked FINISH... the next dialogue box appeared...

    DISK MANAGEMENT
    The operation you selected will convert the selected basic disks and dynamic disks. If you convert the dynamic disks, you will not be able to start the operating systems from any volume on the disks (except the current boot volume). Are you sure you want to continue?
    YES                                                          NO
    That's the problem... why this dialog box appeared?... What can I do?... I want to do a partition of disk without error... I'm not a professional... Please anyone suggest a way to overcome this problem.
                                                                                 Thank you very much.

    MY EMAIL: * e-mail address is removed from the privacy *.

    You can have a maximum of 4 primary partitions. If you already have 4 of these windows will convert your drive on a dynamic volume that is NOT recommended. To resolve this issue, you must convert one of your primary partition in an extended partition. The extended partition can have many more logical drives. Windows Disk Manager is unable to do this without losing the data, but the third-party programs such as Acronis Disk Director can.

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

  • Windows Vista Home Basic Edition keeps looping and will not start

    Windows Vista Home Basic Edition will not boot to the Welcome screen. It keeps restarting loop. I tried to go into safe mode, but who does not start too. Loops of safe mode and return to the start screen.

    I have a dell laptop and I just restalled operating system. I had Windows Update set to automatically download and install. PC worked great until the next day (after the time programmed for automatic updates). I'm assuming that the started after some windows updates when installed. Unfortunately, I can not enter in Windows or Normal or Safe Mode.

    If safe mode does not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

  • Reinstall Windows 7 Home Basic laptop Fujitsu A530

    Hello

    I bought a Fujitsu AH530 Laptop a few years back.

    I had Windows 7 Home Basic pre installed on my laptop. I have the product key original glued to the back of my laptop.

    I had backup of my important files. Fujitsu had provided me with Windows 7 installation CD and CD drivers.

    How can I reinstall Windows 7 Home Basic Edition and restore my laptop to factory settings.

    Please help urgently.

    Thank you.

    Diallo Blanchet

    Use the drivers disk dated Fujitsu since it is a path way to have a functional system, you can always update drivers through Windows Update. It is not essential to have the latest drivers.

    Insert the Windows 7 reinstall disk

    Restart your computer immediately begin to type f12 for the boot menu.

    When the Startup menu appears, choose option 2 or 3 for the DVD player.
    When he turns the disc and says "Press any key to boot from the DVD" press a key
    Select a language, INSTALL now
    Accept the license and custom advanced install
    Patition 0 2 SYSTEM - Select disk DRIVE ADVANCED (lower-right)
    Choose the option remove on all partitions display. (1 by 1)
    Then click on new, apply and choose the Format...
    Click next to start installation.
    It takes about 20 minutes to install the base OS

    Proceed to installing the drivers during the installation is complete.

    Run Windows Update updates of additional driver.

    I would avoid drivers to be honest if they work quite well already.

    Hello

    Here are a few options.

    1. you can order a set of replacement of the recovery media using the link below - it will reinstall the operating system, all the drivers, and almost all of the original software (the exception being often tests of MS Office).  They will also recreate all of the original scores, including the recovery Partition.

    Order HP recovery disks.

    2 you can use the following method to create your own family Windows 7 Edition installation disk basic 64-bit.

    Before you try the following, make sure that you can always read the character product activation key 25 on your label Windows COA (5 blocks of 5 alphanumeric games).

    An example of a COA label can be seen here.

    You can create a Windows 7 installation disc yourself using another PC. However, it not there no download directly available for Windows 7 Home Basic Edition, so you'll need to download another version (one will do, but the link below is for Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit - the source is Digital River).

    Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 64-bit

    For the key on your label of COA to work, you must now use the method described in the following link to convert this ISO to an all-version Installer.

    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/85813-Windows-7-universal-installation-disc-create.html

    Once that is done, use an application like ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly on a blank DVD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write an ISO on a disc is here.

    Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the activation key of Windows on the label of the COA at the request and once the installation is complete, use ' 'phone Method' described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system -this made method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want to just have a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally comes with OEM installations.
