partitioning

I'm trying to install win10 to a new SSD on an intel NUC5i5RYK. I created a GPT partition table containing two equal size partitions using GPARTED (Knoppix). Then I booted to a win10 install DVD (usb device) using the default bios settings. Windows setup shows the two primary partitions...

Hello, I don't unerstand something. I want to have Windows 10 on 2 different SSD. So I hooked up another SSD to my PC and installed Windows 10 on that other SSD too. I booted to the other SSD by changing the boot sequence in the the BIOS, which worked fine. But then when I switched my boot...

I have an xp machine with a new install on a 1T drive. Now I think I should have had a system partition so's I have the option of reformatting and installing another OS on there - without destroying all my data. Win10 has a shrink partition ability that leaves used portions of a drive...

This image describes it well My question is, this will probably break something, so what steps should I take to fix things up after I delete and move stuff around like that?

I am trying to go back to win 7 ult from win 10. My computer is a HP 8200 sff (refurb) with: i5 3.2GHZ processor 8G RAM 1 TB HDD The problem is getting rid of the win 10 partitions. Most disk wiping utilities either don't have partition editing capabilities or are not set up for the win 10...

Hey guys, So I have Ubuntu on my PC, I tried it and I don't like it. My PC was originally windows. I downloaded the ISO file, so how can I install it and replace Ubuntu?

I really didn't expect this. I had a 3tb drive that was partitioned into two smaller drives. I decided to dump both and bring the drive back into a full drive, obviously losing one drive letter. The problem now, is I neglected to delete all the quick access shortcuts. I use these quite a bit...

I got a 5tb drive, and since I wanted it to be one large partition I used gpt. Windows recognized the disk, formatted it, and let me copy files. But when I restarted windows it froze on the "starting windows" screen. I figured out after some messing around that unplugging the drive lets windows...

Hello, My C drive is almost full, 6 GB left now. I tried using EaseUS application to expand, but no use. I think because I have 2 different Disks. Disk 1 is the C drive which is almost full, and Disk 2 is my D drive, it has 300GB left, I want to take some from D drive to my C drive. Anyone...

I want to know can I duel my computer with windows 10 and windows 7, with windows 10 already installs.

Ugghhh... I have a headache. I am trying a clean install of Windows 7, having upgraded to Windows 10, but experience some annoying bugs. Anyway, I bought a new PC without an operating system, then an OEM copy of Windows 7 :-/ So, after attempting this clean install, I got to the stage after...

Windows 10 created a drive "E" for data, that is completely full, but I have not put anything on it. I am getting warnings that this data drive is out of space. Prior to Windows 10 installation, my 1TB data hard drive was unplugged. That drive was drive "E." When Windows 10 installed, it...

Hi everyone, I plan upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 10. But, there is one small problem. Nearly three years ago I noticed my computer does not launch Windows. It showed an error with "Your computer was unable to start". Okay, after few minutes of startup repair my computer finally made it into...

My situation is usually the opposite of what I've found online. I upgraded to Win 10 and I'm quite comfortable with it, the problem is that a critical application for my job does not work with this platform. As I have space, my preferred option is to dual boot with Win 10 and Win 8.1 on the...

For those of you who have SSDs, limited space, or just want to keep your user data on another drive or partition, I wanted to share the results of some experimentation as a followup to my own question on this subject. I know that there is another method of relocating the User Profiles to...
