System Reserved Error Message?
Nov 11, 2012
On loading Windows, I've been receiving an odd error message in reference to a non-existent "F:System Reserved" drive stating "you must format the disk in drive F: before you can use it." This will occur multiple times per minute at first before eventually going away. Each time the error occurs, this F: drive will appear for a split second before immediately disappearing once more. While this hasn't seemed to impact the performance of the computer in any way, the repeated errors essentially make the computer unusable for the first 2-3 minutes after loading.

I have just recently built my new system build. Everything started out fine.I configured my BIOS settings and booting sequence before I had an OS to start it up. Today, I got Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit OEM and put it in the drive to start up, then an error message saying BOOTMGR is missing.

Today I started getting a strange error message pop up that stated "This operation has been canceled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator." It seems to pop up at random. First couple times, I ignored it. When it persisted, I googled it, only to find most people with this error are having issues with links in outlook. I do not use outlook or IE, and wasn't doing anything browser related during any of the errors, so, lazily, I ignored it again. Finally, when one of these errors kicked me out of my Portal game, I decided I had to do something about it. I decided to just system restore before I went through any huge hassle before I tried figuring anything major out.
System restore went swimmingly, didn't seem to have any issues. But.. My keyboard and mouse, both wireless and usb, weren't working upon reboot. Okay. Different port. Nope. All of them are dead. All. Even the motherboard ones in the back. NO usb device I plug in works, or even registers. To make it weirder, I see that my wireless isn't connecting (the internet is fine) and my sound is muted. Sound was on when I started system restore. It's like all input into my machine is no longer accepted. I know the CD drive works, because inserting a CD even brought up the autoplay window, even though I can't actually input anything.

i downloaded a trial progran and deleted it, then i had problems with windows, booted eventually after 6 minutes but no internet and i get this error message, windows cannot connect to systen event services,log in as admin and check what services fail to load, but it wont even do that. my system restore has also been disabled etc. i tried a repair but no joy, so i tried an upgrade but, because the installed version on the PC is newer than the CD version it wont do the upgrade. i am trying to avoid a clean install. how can i get past the "you have a newer version of windows" and do the upgrade,

Disk 0 contains two partitions: System Reserved (active) and C: Disk 0 is dynamic
Disk 2 is unallocated Only the System Reserved partition can be mirrored, "add mirror..." on C: is greyed out. If I mirror System Reserved, I still can't mirror C:
I am guessing if I make C: active, my system won't boot?

For some reason i have to change my partition table from MBR to GPT. So i made a backup of my c drive using Acronis. But when i tried to restore my Windows, I got a message BOOTMGR missing press cntrl+alt+del to restart. Then i came to know that ultimate edition has a hidden partition called system reserved. Is there any way to restore my windows with same programs and drivers. Something like reinstalling windows 7 x64 ultimate and replacing everything by backup except boot files?

I accidently deleted my system reserved partition I only have one system installed on my pc, so no dual boot is needed or anything, I think it created a seperate system partition because of a windows.old folder, which has already been deleted now, because it took too much space. So now when I start up my pc i get the error that my bootmgr is missing. I tried repairing it by inserting the windows 7 dvd and using the repair, but when I click on windows 7 and i try to repair it it says it's the wrong version of windows. My language settings are set correctly so that's not the problem. I then tried to do it by pressing shift + f10 to get into the command line and using the following commands: Bootrec.exe /FixMbr Bootrec.exe /FixBoot Bootrec.exe /ScanOs Bootrec.exe /RebuildBcd however the scanos and rebuildbcd can't find any windows installation. If i put in my windows 7 dvd and i startup my pc, it works fine, because it then uses the bootmgr from the Windows 7 dvd. So I thought, let's just copy the bootmgr.exe to my windows. But this didn't work either.

When originally installing Windows 7 Ultimate I noticed it created a 100mb system reserved partition. No probs.
Recently I turned on AHCI in my bios and attempted to do a clean install. This time WinPE did not create a reserved partition and despite creating an 80gb partition to install windows on it said “Setup was unable to create a new system partition or locate an existing system partition.”
Install refused to proceed any further, pointing me to some log files I could not find. I booted from my repair disk and tried to make the partition active, which was already marked as active and tried again. No luck.
I had deleted all partitions on the drive.
So I turned off AHCI and tried again. I missed the "press any key".. and system complained about a "Master boot record error".. I rebooted and tried to do install again. Same issue.
I was able to recover my system from an image I created earlier, but I sure would like to know why the reserved partition was not created, and why windows refused to install. Because I'm going to try again.
I have purchased a new HDD, one that is supposed to be much faster than my old one, which of course has not been formatted. I tried that drive with and without AHCI and had the sasme issues.

i was trying to reformat my pc last night (windows 7 to windows 7, just doing a clean reformat).now, i have 3 partitions in my hdd. system reserve, OS partition and my personal partition. i decided to delete my OS partition, then proceeded to delete my system reserve (it allowed me to, don't know why). I then created a new partition. My pc now has only 2 partitions. When I try to install to my new OS partition, it says that "Setup was unable to create a new system partition blah blah" The usual msg. I tried doing the Active thingy on the diskpart but I still can't install my Windows 7

I have recently gone back to using Windows standard defrag. It show that the System Reserved Partition is fragmented. It goes through the motions of defragging, very quickly and the amount of fragmentation stays the same 11%. I am just odd enough to want that defragged on general principles.

I installed a new ssd drive and cloned my c drive onto it. It also cloned my system reserved partion [about 25 megabytes]. I then, at a later date, cloned my c drive [now my new ssd drive] again back to my old primary drive so that i have an up to date copy of my primary drive. But it also cloned my system reserved partion. Can i delete some of these system reserved partions. I now have 3 of them! It makes my computer look very untidy. What ones should i leave or do i need to leave them all?

I've added another HDD to my system. On my older HDD which is 1 TB, 3Gb/s,w/6b of cashe. I have two partitions on it called System Reserved (100 Mb) and Back Up Disk (250 Gb). The newer HDD is 1 TB, 6Gb/s w/32Mb of cashe.My PC will handle the 6 Gb/s transfer rate.Should I put these partitions on the newer faster drive?Can I and/or should I combine these partitions?If I can combine them what size should I make a new Partition @150GB?s above will also relate to the moving the BackUp files too?I've estimated what i think the size of the partitions above should be, should I change them? Down the road I'd like to multl boot with Linux and XP Pro I'm using Windows 7 64b Ultimate it's on a SSD all by itself?

I have a bit of a problem. I recently got a new SSD and configured it to make it my boot drive. I kept my old installation on my hdd and also made a new partition on that device to hold all of the program files, data, etc. Whenever I was finished installing all the programs that I had on my old setup on my new setup and had transfered all necessary documents, I figured it was time to remove the old partition and expand the new data partition to fill the drive. I used gparted to delete the old one and expand the new one.
For some reason, whenever I installed windows 7 on my ssd, it never created a system reserved partition. Everything booted up fine. After deleting my old partition, my system now fails to boot up and gives me the message "BootMGR is missing. Press CTRL+ALT+DEL to restart". Clearly, my computer is now wanting a system reserved partition.
My question is, how do I create a system reserved partition AFTER Windows 7 has been installed?
I have already tried startup repair and all of the bootrec.exe commands, but none of them seem to work.

I just reformatted my HD and installed Windows 7-64 Ultimate again. Since I have been using Windows 7, I know most of the tweaks, but don�t recall how I fixed this one. When in Windows Explorer, under Computer, I see all of my hard drives, but also see a drive for System Reserved. What tweak do I need so that I don�t see the system reserved?

I bought a new computer where Windows 7 is already pre-installed on partition C:. In addition I want now to install a second "test" Windows 7 system on new primary partition. And a logical "data" partition. At startup I want to choose later between the 2 Windows 7 systems which one I want to boot.
When I inspect now the current partition table (before changing it) it looks like:
1.) "Recovery" 10 GB Primary MBR NTFS
2.) "System Reserved" 100 MB Primary NTFS, Active, System
3.) "Local Volume" 30 GB Primary MBR NTFS Boot
4.) Unallocated
As you can I have a problem: If I create a new, 4 th primary, bootable partition with 30 GB into the "unallocated" space, then all maximum 4 primary partitions are filled. I cannot create a 5 th primary partition which contains the logical "data" partition. So I guess I must either destroy "Recovery" or "System Reserved" primary partition to have one more primary partition slot available.
Now what for are the "Recovery" and the "System reserved" partition? I don't know them from WinXP. Are they Windows 7 specific? Or are they "inventions" from the computer manufacturer (Sony)? Is "Recovery" absolutely necessary? Why is "System Reserved" active? From I WinXP I know only partitions as active which hold the OS and not some kind of "pre-boot-partitions"

Boot files etc have installed on C and not system reserved, why?Is it because I increased the size of the system reserved and then (maybe I) left the larger partition highlighted by mistake?I used Windows own install disk to format etc.

I've taken a 1TB SATA HDD from a second computer which had Windows 7 OS on it. I have housed it in an external caddy to use as a backup drive for my primary computer. It comes up as two paritions G and H. I've formatted G to give me a 931Gb drive and I have a H drive with 99.9MB which is the System Reserved from the previous Windows 7 install.Can I format the System Reserved partition on the external drive and combine the two partitions to create one external backup HDD?? If I need software tools to do this are there any freeware tools that would do this?

I installed Windows 7 RTM 7600 on a new hard disk (previously not partitioned), so I have had the 'system reserved' partition created at Windows 7 initial installation time. I have several of problems with Windows 7, so I would like to reinstall it, but by keeping programs and files. The problem is that the Install file setup.exe looks into 'system reserved' partition rather than checking the C:/ hard drive, and as such does not want to proceed with the reinstall because of a lack of disk space (100 Mo only on 'system reserved' partition)...
- How could I do so making the install looking at C:/ rather than at that partition?
- And during the reinstall could I do so that this partition is not created anymore?

I already have windows 7 Ulitmate x86 but 1 day I came up with an idea of giving a try on x64 one by dual booting.. So I downloaded it legally from microsoft and I did every procedures required for the install. Shrunk my C drive and installed the OS on the unallocated free space on the drive and it went on perfectly. But the problem is the System Reserved partition showed up on the x86 OS. every time i open My Computer i can see the system reserved partition.
I could accidentally do something wrong with the partition if it remains unhidden so I want to hide it. I was thinking of changing the drive letter but I afraid that's going to give me boot problem. In disk management the System Reserved is labelled Z and marked as active. I tried to set my other partition as active that day but the pc cannot boot at all not even the boot manager showed up. However I managed to fix it using my recovery disc to access the cmd and reactivate the Z drive using diskpart.

I'm about to install my new 256gb SSD. This will have 3 partitions;
100mb System reserved partition
80gb Windows OS partition
The rest will be used for VHDs
So, using disk part.. are these the correct commands in the correct sequence (Having unplugged my spinners first so diskpart only sees one drive
select disk 0
clean
create partition primary size=100 align=1024
create partition primary size=80000
select partition 1
format quick fs=ntfs
active
exit
Should I also be formatting the S/R partition? I will create the final partition via disk management when windows is installed. This will result in 3 partitions, all properly aligned etc. Yes? Or am I on some far off planet?

I have bought a new hard drive to use as my main one, and am planning to use my current, larger one as backup, as i found i was not filling it. So i need to completely duplicate my current drive, a 1tb one, with 180gb of stuff, to my new 320gb drive. i have made a full disc image with driveimage xml, which comes to 180gb, but when i try to restore it to the 320gb one, it says it it too big. How do i gp about setting this up? do i need to copy the system reserved partition to the new drive too for windows 7 to work, or can it not be copied? should i install windows 7 to the new drive from my install disc? if so, how to i get my settings, programs and data back without too mcuh hassle?

I have a Windows 7 Professional system that I went to take an image of using EASEUS TODO Workstation. When I went to do the backup, I noticed that there was no 100 MB System Reserved Partition. I made the image anyway.When I tested the image on a new machine, it prompted me to repair or start windows normally. Unable to start normally, so I did the repair. After about 10 min, the system came back and said it cannot repair.Outside of start a system from scratch, is there a way I can get the system reserved partition out of the Windows 7 partition?
