Don't Understand Partitioning Rule

Mar 26, 2008

I will be using 100GB HD for Vista. I have never partitioned a drive before. I do have Partition Magic but have not looked at it yet. I was wondering if it makes sense to divide the HD so Vista is on one part but the other programs install on a different partition. Would that make reformatting Vista easier? If it is a good idea how much should be allocated to the Vista partition. Can Vista do it adequately or should I use PM for making the partitions. As you can guess I don't understand partitioning rules at all!

How To Autoreply Rule To Message

Apr 11, 2008

I have setup a rule to autoreply to messages coming in to a particular email address. however, every time the message goes out, it is an attachment and the body of the message is blank. How can I setup the reply message to be in the body of the email, instead of an attachment. If I'm not mistaken, this worked in Outlook Express, then I upgraded to Vista.

Strange Behavior Of A Rule In Windows Mail.

Mar 23, 2010

In Windows mail i've made two accounts.

One of the accounts is an alias of the same emailbox.

They log in with the same accountname and password.

Recently i've made a rule in Windows mail so that all email from one of the accounts is placed is its respective folder.

The rule works partially because now, all email from both accounts is moved to the folder, while only one of the account is mentioned in the rule.

It looks like it has something to do with the fact that one of the accounts is an alias. The use the same emailbox.

Can someone please tell me if this is the case.

Has someone have any experience with the problem mentioned above.

The OS is Vista.

Choose Details List: Picture Included To Rule Out/verify Idiocy

Jan 15, 2009

My "size" option appears to have gone missing, and I'm not sure why. I searched with google, as well as these forums, though I could find no answer to my problem. (Though that doesn't mean one hasn't been posted; my searching skills may just be crappy.) Regardless, has anyone had this, or a similar issue, occur? Or does anyone know how to add your own "details" to choose from so I can get it back manually? I saw this: Folder Size for Windows Explorer. I probably need something along those lines, but for the size option instead... Also, if I'm somehow just staring at the list and missing it even after scanning through each item, (Picture included to rule out/verify idiocy on my part.)

Another Partitioning

Oct 4, 2008

Keeping data on a separate partition does not pose a significant advantage for me in terms of safeguarding the data, i.e., I backup everything on a daily basis. I also reformat on a regular basis and so the extra time needed to bring everything back to par is not an inconvenience - I actually enjoy it. Nevertheless, and here's my question, does having the OS on a separate partition really offer enough efficiency and performance gains to justify the partitioning? I realize this depends on how much enough is enough for my taste, but.

Ultimate 64 & Partitioning

Jul 10, 2008

I recently installed Vista Ultimate 64 into a brand new self-built pc. The HD is 1TB in size. Vista put some 'unmoveable' files in the middle of the HD, and, of course, I cannot now reduce the size of the C drive down to the size I want it to be, as the C drive must contain the unmoveable files.

How Can Partitioning Drive

Mar 18, 2009

My drive currently looks like this: I would like to take the unallocated space and Free space and turn them into a 40GB partition or otherwise add about 20GB each to the C: and E: drives. I tried the partition software here, but it wouldn't let add the free space and Unallocated space together. It would only let me format them into seperate partitions. It did say though that the Unallocated space is a primary partition, and the free space is a logical partition, if this makes any difference. The drive is 2 x 500GB drives in RAID 0, and I'm running Vista Business x64.

Partitioning XP Created Partitions.

Aug 3, 2009

I just started running Vista Ultimate 64bit. I had a copy of Windows XP Pro, and I created all my partitions in that, when I upgraded I just formatted my drive C and installed Vista. I was told that I should not partition any drives that have partitions created in XP or earlier systems because it will cause the data to corrupt, due to the way Vista deals with the sectors of the hard drive. Is there any truth to this?

Partitioning In Windows 7: Boot Partition Without A Letter - 100 MB

Mar 20, 2010

partition on his 1 terabyte HD with Windows 7 premium installed. In Computeradmin. it shows: The HD is partitioned with: boot partition without a letter - 100 MB. OEM partition also without a letter - 20 MB.

C: partition, system - 945 GB.

D: partition, Recover- 20 GB

All partitions are Simple, fundamental, primary partitions. I did reduce the C-partition from 945 to 439 GB. Then I would make a new simpel partition on the unallocated part. I right clicked to create a simple partition, but it said all partitions would be converted to dynamic dishes. I would only have a simple partition, but there was no such choice.

Partitioning: Windows Doesn't Seem To Be Satisfied With The 30GB

Nov 24, 2008

My husband's computer was set up at the release of Vista, so that's a while ago. At that time, he decided that a windows partition of 30 GB would be adequate. His computer has 2 physical disks. The second physical disk is set up just the way he likes it. The disk with the windows partition on it is set up as follows. 30 GB for the windows partition, 15 GB for his documents (seperate partition) and the rest is also a seperate partition.

The swap file is located on the second physical disk. I've recently found out that there is 9,7 GB of unallocated space on the windows physical disk which can't seem to be either added to another of the partitions OR allocated as a seperate partition (no clue why). The problem is that windows doesn't seem to be satisfied with the 30GB anymore, not with installed programs and stuff.............

Cannot Expand System Partition, Partitioning Software

Mar 11, 2009

Before you flame the thread saying partitioning capabilities are already included in x64, they are bad and limited. I cannot expand my system partition even with unallocated space on the drive sitting there unused. For example, i have a 750gb sata system drive which is partitioned into 3 spaces, my system partitionn, my media partition and unallocated space partition, i wanted to add this 100gb of unallocated space to my system partition so that it will have some headroom and space for further programs if need be. However vista ultimate's disk management does not allow this like partition magic used to. Of course partition magic is not compatible with vista[hurray] so i need compatible software to do so

Partitioning HD: Minimum Shrink Existing Partition Around 176gb?

Mar 29, 2008

I have Vista Home Premium preloaded on a Dell Inspiron 1520 with a 320gb hard drive. I would like to isolate the OS from my data by shrinking the OS partition to 42GB and creating another partition for my data. However, Vista's partitioning utility says the minimum I can shrink the existing partition to is around 176gb. I suspect that even though I have defragged the hard drive, there is some part of the OS that is sitting on the drive out far enough to cause this. I can't verify this because Vista's defrag utility doesn't show you a map of the drive during defrag. Anyone know of a way around this?
