How to delete partitions that cannot be deleted - video tutorial

Hi friends, in today's tutorial you'll learn how delete partition C if you are having trouble formatting or delete it even when we do this bootand a CD with Windows XP, Vista or 7.
Usually Laptops manufacturers tend to install additional software for the automatic backp operating system, then the backup will be saved to a partition that has a format other than NTFS or FAT. This format and partition with another Windows NTFS partition fails to recognize than type, FAT32 FAT16 and will not be visible in Disk Management in Windows. Most backup software creates these partitions in EXT format to save the backup. Well, if you wanted to when you could not wipe the C partition, one of the causes can be just that. Due to the hidden partition that is not visible in Disk Management, you can not delete or modify any C partition that contains the operating system.
As a solution to all this we remain third party software Acronis Disk Director or even other operating systems like Linux distribution Ubuntu.
Ubuntu is an operating system open source and free course that can be downloaded ubuntu.ro (for those who do not know "How to make a bootable cd" I invite to watch the tutorial). Assuming I downloaded the ISO image as a CD and have it, we can boot into Live mode and we can use GParted or Disk Utility to format, erase and repartition the hard drive us. This operating system or third-party software can help to delete hidden back-up partitions and so we can change, delete, or repartition the whole hard disk drive or partition C only due to its ability to recognize ensemble of partitions of the most diverse. That said, I invite you to watch the video tutorial to see exactly what we can do when we can not modify or delete the C partition even if we want to do this in the boot using a bootable CD or DVD with Windows.

      I have a question what is the difference between a primary partition, extended partition, logical partition??

      Primary partition is bootable partition. There puts Windows boot files.
      The extended partition is where you can create logical partitions (logical partitions). On a disk there can be only one extended partition.
      Adrian did not give him permission to create logical partitions (using Gparted) not originally created as an extended partition. I had to create an extended partition and then create and logical partitions within the extended partition. Other partitioning software automatically creates an extended partition when you choose to create logical partitions. But not Gparted. You must manually create the extended partition and then just create logical partitions.
      Use a primary partition for booting operating system and logical partitions for data storage.

        Using extended or logical partition is not required or not necessary. If you look better in Windows 7 and we want to install a new hard drive, unpartitioned it makes all primary partitions automatically and they are in the operating system and the data that will be saved.

          Right, what I said in comment was more than a recommendation. From what I know, not a hard 4 have more primary partitions. Well, if for some reason we need more than 4 partitions, logical partitions are required.
          Maybe you want to install a Linux distribution in dualboot with windows. As you know, Linux distributions can be installed on logical partitions.
          If we have only primary partitions, in this example we have:
          -Primary partition (C, windows)
          Second ext partition Primada 4 ubuntu
          Third primary partition ext 4 (/ home) ubuntu

          In this way we may create maximum than one primary partition on this disk. If you use logical partitions, otherwise the deal.

      Be a snob. It's not about stinginess, it's about wasting time and filling the comments section with unnecessary, dirty comments that confuse those who really want to read something useful. Offering no download link from me only repeats your same question "where did you download the theme" even if I specified the link above. You do not read, it hurts you somewhere that you confuse others, you only follow your interest and do not look at others.

      Answer given to your question but it seems that either do not want or do not see, or do not know where your comment! Posting to last comment does not mean that you will get quick response! We see anywhere post your comments! Please stop repeating the same question and if you do not satisfy our response against its own research on the issue. No more dirty comments box with the same comment / question / problem

      Answer: Your problem is a little more delicate ... and that's because it is necessary (or not) run that executable. Linux does not know how to run or execute natively. Exe I recommend doing the search box on the top right black edge: Wine. You enter and you will find the tutorial
      Wine is an "app" that allows running executables in Linux (not all ... see and you may get lucky)

  16. I greet you with great respect. I also have a little confusion and I would ask someone who knows better how to deal with processors to help me a little. I recently bought an AMD Athlon2 x3 450 with 3,2GHz and a gigabit board on the AM3 and with integrated graphics. to upgrade it with a better video card. Okay, but informing me about this processor I found out that I can activate it from the bios and the 4th core. So I understand from this that it has native the 4th core? In the bios there is an option called ACC (advanced clock calibration) which must be put on the car and EC firmware selection on the hybrid. I personally checked the thing and it works but it created emotions for me because the bios told me some update and then it turned off my pc and after a few seconds it turned on by itself, it crashed and… surprise: it shows me x4 instead of x3 So now we have a quad core instead of triple core. Now I don't know what to do and especially how it would be better to use it because in quad it seems to move better but I think that modifying parameters through bios of What could you say?

I had Paragon partition master installed earlier and it shows me a free disk space of 184GB. I thought it was a mistake, I finally uninstalled it, I installed Acronis DD which does not show me that free space. I installed it now from a partition manager and it shows me that I have 184GB of free disk space. What's the truth? I'm upset, do I have a free disk space that I don't know about? Please, can you help me with a clarification? Thank you very much.

      What part of the tutorial do not understand? He spoke Chinese? We have already explained why or how this is happening. The text above tutorial you read?
      Partitions that Windows can not see them because they are other than NTFS or FAT format are seen as empty or not. What you're clear here? It's in Romanian tutorial and test above?

  18. Adrian, can not understand! I'll be short and to the point.
    I 1 new laptop preinstalled with nothing on it. Partitioning've done it myself, as well as
    Ultimate Windows7 installation without 100MB partition, that is:
    http://cl.ly/3I27061G1j0K1O11193a
    2-I don't want to delete any partition, I simply installed O&O partition manager and, surprise!http://cl.ly/1a3z0m2L373G0I3X2U1Q
    I 184GB unallocated space. So I just wanna know, what's with that space,
    that I am not aware.
    3 I booted with Ubuntu, I waited to load 45min and did not want, I quit.
    Mention that 3GB RAM and Intel dual-core 2,5Ghz
    4 I booted with GParted, I see that all hard disk, unallocated space, but the size
    you and I know, that 232,8GB
    I installed Paragon 5 That shows me 176GB unallocated space and partition F tells me that I invalidate (odd-
    has the same capacity-176GB). I scanned that space and gave me:
    http://cl.ly/3J2N0N0P0q2P0v0j1f18/o
    So what is that space is the HDD and I do not know him, and I have not partitioned right??? Can you help me? If it is true that space and you'll buy it back, really! By the way, you know you are f.atent to everything you say, write, do not post until you try to solve it yourself. Let's please help me, give me an idea what to do! Thank you.

      You just installed Ubuntu and you run Live CD (s difference and this is important) If you installed, then you have to put the password you setato when you've installed Ubuntu. Administrator password that you enter when you want to get into Ubuntu. Just like in Windows when you put your administrator password, and want to do something that requires administrator rights.

    Normal! If you format an HDD, a partition will erase everything on it, and viruses and programs. Then you can install Windows.

    What do we do if, after several installations and backups made in the back, the C is full. And we wake up when reinstalling that it crashes due to lack of space… and ready.
