THANKS FOR READING........

OOP'S you are here,,,,,,,,,then lets continue at your risk..........


Statement:

You are using this guide at your own risk. I don't take any responsibility for any problems.

Important informations !

Before you will do anything please create a set of recovery discs and back up all important data.
Both these steps will save you a lot of troubles if something will go wrong.
     
            Resource:
         From experience

Remember that if you will decide to use the recovery discs or the F11 option to restore the PC to its originalcondition, all partitions which were created by you will be lost and all the data which were stored on them willalso be lost.

Introduction:

Below screenshot shows pre-configured partitions on HP notebook with pre-loaded Windows 7.

As you see mounted HDD has four primary partitions:

  • C - partiton with the operating system.
  • HP_TOOLS - partition which allow to use diagnostic tools after pressing F2 on startup.
  • RECOVERY - partiton which allows to recover system by pressing F11 on startup.
  • SYSTEM - active partition which boots the operating system. 
Here begins our problem. A standard partition table is only able to store information about four partitions.
This means that a hard disk could have a maximum of four partitions. The four standard partitions are oftencalled the primary partitions.

To deal with this limitation we may:

----> Delete hp tools partiton , and create new logical partion, BUT RECOVERY MEDIA SET HAVE BEENCREATED BEFORE......




PROCESS:

Note:
Please perform each operation individually.
Using several operations at one time may end with fatal error.

1.Hope you have your recovery media , recovery media dvd set and DRIVER DVD,if not then please get it first for safety..

2. Download and install MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition.

3.Please back all of your data on HARDDISK before proceding.......

4.Go to START> COMPUTER > RIGHT CLICK ON IT > MANAGE

5.A window opens, select disk management from it , given on left hand side....

6.It will display your harddisk partitions as displayed in image.....carefully locate HP_TOOLS Partition in given table.....

9.Now action time...........

10.Start Minitool Partition wizard.......it will diaplay your partitons.........select C: partition......right click on it .....select option move/resize...

11.New dialog box appears displays currents stats use the drag corners on top to reduce size for C: drive ......set the new size according to use..........But new size must not be less than 150 gb to avoid any data loss.....

12.leave rest of options intact.........click ok...........this will return you to minitool partiton wizrd home screen........click on apply at leftmost top corner..........it asks for permission say yes........then it displays that drive is in use you need to restart............

13.Click on Restart Computer........

14.Your Computer will restart in Mini tool partition boot mode dont press any key...........after loading it will start processing and shrinking............then copying data...........it will restart automatically after progress is done 100%..........be patient.........it takes upto 5-10 mins......

15.If every thing goes fine your computer will start normally.........then go to START> COMPUTER > RIGHT CLICK ON IT > MANAGE

16. New window opens, select disk management from it , given on left hand side....now you can see your C: partition has been reduced in size according to your size specified...........and unallocated space have been created along by C: partion.

SUPPLEMENTARY:-

1. You can create any image creation tool......to create image of your C: Partiton and save image in yourcustom created partitons.......
2. In future if you want to recover system,,,,,you may use your created image using imaging software forrestoring your C: partiton......may be helpfull instead of running recovery.........
