I turned it off from services, and no I don't download any such 3rd party software. I'm about to reinstall the system. It looks like a virus or malware...

My windows button is not working. Run command window also don't let me access functions. Windows update was turned off, wonder if that is the problem. Cannot access windows update or settings. Thanks

Updates are so frequent, I have to interrupt my work with updates I don't need. Anyway to stop them?

Thanks a bunch! The free partition software you indicated worked well. My disk now is in one piece.

Why is this so hard. I've been looking at web pages that walk you through but nothing works. Any suggestions. All I need is to boot externally so I can initialize a hard drive

Ok. It worked but I now have two partitions and 100mb with a system element. How do I intialize the whole disk so one partition and erase the system 100mb?

I can't format the drive 1 because there is a system partition there. Not sure what you mean as "Neemobeer advice" How do I go about accessing this drive from my new OS which is working fine, without using external boot? Thanks

Yes, it does say 'GUID Partition Table (GPT)' You mean all is well for a reboot from rescue disk? Thanks

I see what happened. I already clean install on disk 0 with large drive off. The boot partition on the large drive was from a previous install I did and misdirected the drives. I guess I need to initialize the drive with rescue disk. Thanks

Disk 1 is the extra drive. Is a 1 TB drive. Only 100MB are allocated? When right click I cannot make any changes for this drive. Any tips? The disk is there and working but can't change letter or do anything with it.

Yes, sorry is is showing on both. I must have made a mistake on the clean install and deleted the drive. So it shows on disk manager, say it is working properly but I can't assess or see it on the finder...

It says disk is working properly

It shows on device manager but it does not mount. But it does not show in disk manager...

No, not new but the system can't find it for some reason

I have just clean installed a new system. Everything is fine but the new system can't boot up my 2nd drive. It shows on device manager but does not mount. Any tips? Thanks
