I have just installed Windows 7 on my new Segate 2 TB HDD. It's running great, but when I went into computer management, I noticed about 114 GB of free space. When I tired to create a partition, Windows reports that there's isn't enough space available to complete this operation. I don't know what's wrong,[CODE]

View 1 Replies View RelatedI used a windows image in transfer my computer to a new ssd drive. The image copied even the hd size. The ssd is a 256 and my old hd was a 160. I now have 150gb boot section, a 100mb reserve and a 90gb unallocated space. what can I do to remove the partition and combine the space so I have access to the full drive? I searched and couldnt find anything.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI originally had the free space as a D: Drive but decided to reallocate the space used back onto C:. I have gotten this far but am unsure how to continue because the extend drive option for C: is grayed out. I believe this is because the space which used to be D: is still shown as an extended partition. I have a Samsung RC512 with an Intel Core i7 Quad core processor and Windows 7 Home Premium.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am running Windows 7, and for some reason my computer says I have no disk space free when I have recently deleted items freeing up about 40 more GB.For example, if I try to create a new folder, it says "There is not enough space on SW_Preload (C:). 0 bytes is needed to copy this item. Delete or move files so you have enough space." The reason I started deleting files is because my disk defragmenter wasn't working. I thought if I deleted some files then it would be able to move them around better? Well, all it seemed to have accomplished is making my disk think it's fuller...

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am planning on making a windows 7 image with macrium reflect free. Windows 7 is installed on a 290 GB partition. Now, only 22.3 GB of that space is being used, pretty much by windows 7 and other third-party programs. Will macrium reflect back up that 22.3 GB or back up all 290 GB which is mostly free space? ( I know that the question seems a little weird, but I want to make sure)
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am having a new problem with a 1 year old computer I built running Windows 7 64 bit.
I have two hard drives:
Solid State (Mainly just the OS on here)2nd hard drive with everything else on it.Windows is saying I have used 31.5 gb of space on the SSD.When I enable hidden folders/files and select everything on the drive, it is only coming up with 21.5gb used.I DO NOT have system restore enabled.I DO NOT have Windows backup enabled.Honestly have no clue what is causing this 10gb or so of space to be unaccounted for but I know it wasn't always like this
i have a reformated HDD that previously contained WinXP. When I installed Win 7 couple of years ago I retained the old drive until I could remove other data from it. That has all been done. The drive has been reformatted, but used space is 100MB. I suspect it was set aside for Win 7 System Reserved space.How can force that space to be freed?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a problem regarding space in c: drive. I installed win 7 in c: drive for second time because of my pc is very slow. I thought the reason for that is low free space in my c: drive. After installing win 7 I have installed programs listed below:
Adobe reader 9.0
Google chrome
Intel graphics media accelerator driver
jdk 7
avast free antivirus
MS Office 2007 package
I have allocated 30GB out of 120GB for c: drive. But, now my pc's c: drive's used space is over 18GB. I think there is some problem with configurations of win 7 in my pc.
My biggest folders are seemingly Network Service and AppData. My OS is on an SSD with 60GB, I have another 1TB SATA and a second 60GB SSD as well. If I were to create these two folders in the second SSD, and make them point there, would this cause any issues? I am trying to re-enable my pagefile because it is currently set to 16MB and I can't create a full memory dump unless I set it back to the original 8GB. I only have 4GB free on my SSD, and it is not enough. The other SSD is empty and entirely available.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI just installed 7 today. I kind of figured it would be like reformatting xp where it just wipes the hard drive clean and you start from scratch. All of my folders are empty but my HD only has 20G of free space i don't know whats taking it all up?
I was counting on having an almost empty HD when it was all installed. Sorry if this is a re-post.

View 2 Replies View RelatedDrive space keeps disappearing from my c drive for no reason. I have windows installed on an 11GB partition. In the last week, free space has dropped from around 1GB to nothing, then back to around 300MB. I can't understand why this is happening, I've installed nothing, disabled system restore and hibernation, and have a fixed pagefile of 250MB (all I need). I use CCleaner but none of the missing space is recovered, windows has eaten over 700MB and I see no reason for this,

View 17 Replies View RelatedI'm running Windows 7 64bit on a notebook. One 500GB drive partitioned to an OS drive and a data drive.I run AVAST (paid version), Malware Bytes and unhackme and no viruses/trojans/rootkits discovered - I'm a stickler for security.I noticed in Windows Exploring that both drives were getting low on available storage (both <8GB). I copied 30GB from the data drive and 10GB from the OS drive to an external drive and deleted the files from the notebook, using shift key/delete. I cleared the Recycle Bin; ran Disk error check (Scandisk) and defragged both drives.Folder Size & Treesize Pro both tell me I have 180GB & 100Gb respectively free; versus Windows Explorer 5Gb & 6GB.My available storage only increased by 800MB and 600MB respectively after deleting the files, so for a file removal of 40Gig I get back 1.4gig of HD space.I've checked pagefile.sys and hiberfil.sys [8GB between them] and they haven't altered recently.Ran CCleaner's Registry cleaner - no difference.I rang the OS support for my Notebook Manufacturer and spent 1/2 a day trying different things including HD tune. They couldn't figure it out but suggested Utorrent may be grabbing HDD space so I uninstalled it.... no difference.

They made it so the C: drive is around 58GB, and the D: is the other GBs which add up to 500GB. She is practically out of room on her C: and the computer is almost unusable. I already deleted the D: partition, but the partition manager in Windows 7 won't let me extend the partition to fill up all of the space. The option to extend it is just grayed out.
