I used MiniTool Partition Wizard Professional edition to merge two partitions and now my daughter's computer won't start.I installed a new 750 gb hard drive to replace her 320 gb drive. Everything was fine, but when I cloned her 320 gb hard to the 750 gb drive, it partitioned the drive so that 320 was allocated to the active boot system and the other 400-some were unallocated. I needed to merge both partitions so that all the space would be usable. This is how the drive was partitioned.B: System 199 MB --> C: Bootable Active 285 GB --> D: System Recovery 12 GB --> Unallocated 400 GB..MiniTool Partition Wizard will only allow you to merge two partitions that are next to each other, so in order to merge partition C with the unallocated partition I had to delete partition D.Everything was fine, but then MiniTool said it couldn't finish the merge process because partition C was in use. It told me to restart my computer to finish the merge process.I restarted the computer and now it won't boot. I download a Windows 7 64 bit recovery ISO and burned it to disk then popped it in the drive and restarted the computer but it still won't boot. I even went into BIOS settings and made sure that the CD/DVD drive is first in line in the boot order. It still won't boot.Not sure what to do from here. I'm a Mac user, my daughter has the Windows 7 computer, so I'm not exactly very well-versed in that operating system. Upgrading the hard drive on my Mac was very easy, no merging of partitions needed. How do I get my daughter's computer running and get the partitions merged?

I have a Dell XPS 430 that came with Windows Vista and a Windows 7 upgrade disk. I set up my main hard drive with Windows 7 on one partition, Linux on another partition, and a third partition for storage. I recently needed more space for Windows, and no longer needed Linux, so using the Windows 7 disk manager I deleted the Linux partition and extended the Win partition using the newly unallocated space.
Upon restarting my machine, I am no longer able to boot into windows but instead am presented with the message:
GRUB Loading, please wait...
Error 22
I have a Windows 7 disk that I am using to access the repair utility, which I have run countless times. I have tried severel of the tutorials to rebuild BCD and FixMBR, etc etc. Frankly I am getting lost in all the commands and not even sure what does what anymore!

I am a big fan of Paragon products - but they don't do a free partitioner for 64 bit. Anybody looking for a free one that works on Vista and 7 32 bit and 64 bit, may like to try this:
http://www.partitionwizard.com/
I tried several operations on 7x64 and it worked very well. It is also very small and fast. No boot disc included, but it does put itself into it's own " boot ime " mode when needed.
The only thing I notice that might confuse newbies is they describe System and Boot the opposite way to MS.

Is there a dynamic partition manager out there for Win 7...something like what Partition Manager used to be? Also, I'm thinking of adding a version of Linux to my system and I'm looking for an easy to use boot-manager-editor to use in Win 7?

I should know the answer to this question but my mind isn't working. I have done this before but can't remember how *exactly* I did it.
I took my sister's 150GB HD and set her up with a dual boot with Windows 7 and XP. She now wants me to take Windows 7 off and just use XP for a while. If I use a 3rd party partitioning tool to remove the Windows 7 partition FROM WITHIN XP, will this screw up the boot manager? I think it should be fine. Just take out the partition and extend the XP partition into the free space and it should just boot to XP. Is this correct?

I used Gparted to shrink the windows partition and create other partitions for a dual boot. Windows seems to be find except that disk manager does not reflect the changes, and defragmenter will not work at all?

I have a Sony Vaio VPCEB23FM, At first when I tried to go to windows i got a black screen that said "Operating System Not Found", so my friend tried to fix it with a windows 7 repair cd. But here is the problem he accidentally formatted the Hard Drive which deleted all the files and file the manufacture put in it, he also tried to mess with the ranish partition manager, so he tried to install a fresh windows 7 OSX but the laptop shutoff, now he tried it again and we get a message saying "setup cannot continue due to a corrupted installation file" I cant get to my desktop either.

Since a Windows update at 3 AM this morning Windows Explorer keeps freezing and i can't do anything beside a reboot using the power button of my computer. It seems to be random. It mostly happens when i open a file or a folder, right click on something or do anything involving explorer.I tried to do a system restore but didn't fix it. I'm wrting this in safe mode and so far i have no problem.

during the night yesterday my computer crashed, i can't boot it at all. keeps giving me video signal errors, but when I use a linux live dvd, everything works fine, so it is only windows7 that is the problem... I tried using the W7 installation disc but the recovery and restore functions are not working either.

I just bought a new ASUS computer with Windows 7. I have a Macbook Pro and would like to transfer my photos and music onto my new computer. I have 2 external hard drives that work perfectly fine on my mac as well as other PCs. When I plug either of my external hard drives in they are recognized in device manager and say they are working properly but are not recognized in disk manager or under my computer...

I just got my first computer in place i installed win 7 on it and everything went smooth, but then i realized i had by misstake installed the 32bit version..so i checked the SSD, which is the only kind of storage drive i have right now, and for some reason the installation had made an partition called system drive or something on 100mb. the stupid thing is that it was nothing on it?? windows was still on C:? anyway , after many minutes of thinking i decided to just reinstall windows over the old one and so i did. it runned smooth and went perfect, i checked the preferences of my computer and as planned i now had the 64 bit version but 30Gb was lost on my SSD? i discovered that the old windows was still there, in the windows.old folder... i didnt think about much so i'd just pressed delete...
the crash: loud noise came from the computer and it shut off, now i cant get it to work!!!!!when i start it all the lights starts and the fans runs but nohting moreand how do i format the ssd so i can use it when i've fixed the computer!specs:Motherboard: MK Gigabyte Z68X-UD3H Socket 1155, Z68 CPU:Core i5 2500K Graphic: GK EVGA GeForce GTX 570 SC RAM:Corsair 8GB (KIT) DDR3 1600MHz/VENG.

I am no expert when it comes to computers so please bear with me. My Acer Aspire laptop crashed on me. It uses Windows 7. Start up repair does not work. I have a set of Windows 7 disks, 32 bit and 64 bit. Not too sure which one I should have used so I tried both with the same results. I have tried to re-install Windows 7 again as well as repairing the Windows 7 which is already on my computer with the disks with no luck. When re-installing it gets stuck at 'Setup is starting'. It stays like that for hours. When I try the repair option it gets stuck at 'checking for operating system' or something to that effect, also for hours on end

I tried installing ubuntu on my HP pavilion dm4 today by dual booting it and keeping both windows 7 and ubuntu on the different partitions. I installed ubuntu 10.10 successfully but the thing was when I am restarting the laptop. Its asking me to choose the operating system but when i choose windows 7 it says to repair the system and to repair I should have a Windows 7 DVD. I got the system 10 days back and i had no back up of the system and I think my HP recovery was also crashed. I dont know what to do. How to bring my Windows back? The good thing was ubuntu was working good and I am using it now...

My laptop used to run on Windows 7 Home Premium 32bit, but the OS crashed and just wouldn't boot. I tried using my laptop's recovery disc, but that had some problem and doesn't help me restore my laptop. I hope to format my hard-drive and do a fresh install of Windows 7. But for that I don't have an installation disc, I have a registered key for Windows 7 at the bottom of my laptop though

My mate had trouble with wayyyy too low fps in a game.W decided to install Windows 7 ultimate x64 on his laptop then.We couldn't upgrade vista to it, so we chose the "custom install" option, where Windows 7 gets installed separately and vista gets moved into a folder called windows.old.We were almost done with the install and had just passed the time and network setup, suddenly a small window flashes with the text "windows failed to complete...." we couldnt see the rest and the laptop rebooted.Then we got continually stuck on "press any key to boot from CD or DVD...".Sometimes we get it to continue and it gets stuck on "Windows is loading files". And 2 times it completed loading files and shut down instantly after.

I started watching an OTA recording with WMC7 and about 2 minutes into it WMC7 stopped. A message came up saying it stopped & had options to restart WMC or go online (which appeared to send info to MS) and a 3rd option I don't recall. I just restarted & everything worked just fine.
I looked at event logs & found this. I did a search for that ntdll.dll but could not find a definitive answer to what caused the problem. The typical comments were to reboot or reinstall software. Is there anything from this listing that tells or hints at what caused WMC to stop?

This is the exact laptop I have, Asus X54C 15.6 inch laptop (Intel Pentium B960 2.2GHz, 8Gb RAM, 500Gb HDD, DVDSMDL, LAN, WLAN, Webcam, Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit): Amazon.co.uk: Computers & Accessories
This morning when turning it off, it started to update with the usual screen saying not to turn it off or unplug. I went out to do some stuff, and when I came back my laptop was turned off so I assumed the installation had finished. However when I pressed the power on button the laptop turned on, it was still how I had left it installing updates. However it seemed to be making no progress whatsoever. It was still on 1 of 60 updates. I left it for a while, but I needed to take it home and seen as it wasn't doing anything I held the power on/off button to power down the laptop to take it home. When home the laptop would refuse to boot to windows, and the screen would just go black. I tried to start the laptop in safemode, but again it wouldn't load. I performed startup repair but it said the problem couldn't be fixed. I then performed a system restore, however it also said that could not be performed. However after clicking okay, windows loaded up and prompted me to log in. Upon which I am on the computer now with no problems, a contradictory message came up saying that the system restore had been succesful. I'm now worried that there still could be some problem that might arise when I close down my computer and need to start it up the next time, in addition it is wanting me to install updates and prompting me to restart my computer. Does anyone have any advice on how I can ensure that the computer does not have the same problems again when updating, and in addition how can I make sure that there are no problems waiting in the computer to surface again and it is fixed?

I am writing this windows safe mode.Cannot get computer to boot in reg mode. Sat for 40 minutes, with message "please wait while windows configures"Am running windows 7, 64 bit home, Dell Inspiron 570 It started yesterday when it downloaded updates for Windows. After the restart, the computer screen looked strange and could not open any programs. Went to "start" and re-booted, same thing happened again. I again went to start, this time it came up with 2 errors. (wish I had wrote them down) but said something about windows cannot find such and such. (sorry) Anyway, clicked on the "X" and windows came up again, but nothing would open. Had to hard boot as the start button would not even work.Rebooted into safe mode and have tried to return to a previous restore point. Seems I don't have any. So can't do that. I did go go to the recent installed windows updates and deleted them. But will not let me change the settings as in: Don't install updates automatically. I don't know if it is trying to install those over and over again. I tried to get it to come up again with the errors, but no such luck, it just sits with the blue welcome screen, then the "please wait"

Any prevailing issues with the latest round of windows updates? Two weeks ago our computer running Windows 7 Premium downloaded an update and received the dreaded black screen on startup. It will now no longer run windows, offer a boot menu or anything. Today our older unit running Vista Home Premium did an auto update and we now have the same issue. Sadly with the O/S and with Microsoft "stellar" customer service. I am running Norton with all the current updates and i am sure it is not a virus.

So about 2 hours ago on my PC. I was playing WoW and had a hard crash and lock up. So I restarted my PC. Everything seemed fine. Just a mysterious crash. So I went on to updating my graphics drivers since it had been on my mind to do so. About half way into the update my desktop then crashed again. Only this time it cannot even get windows 7 64 bit to start up.Then I ran the Start up Repair program. I get a message that it cannot repair it automatically.On a history note. This PC has been pretty good to me. A few months back I had a bad run in where my RAM wasnt being read correctly and a simple re-docking fixed that. That was solved on this web forum as well. I don't know if its connected. Just a reference on history.Other then that I'm not exactly sure how to go about on fixing this. I've never had a problem where even Windows wont boot up. *Safe Mode does start up* Just not sure what to do.BSOD data is attached. I tried running perfmon / report in safe mode but I got an error.

The hard drive on my Toshiba Satellite crashed. I made the backup discs when the computer was new, but evidently made them through the Toshiba backup rather than Windows backup. Now my recovery discs want to access the hard drive partition to reinstall Windows 7 which it cannot do.
How can I install the Windows 7 OS onto my new hard drive? I have the product code on the back of my computer, but how can I get Windows 7 to install without having to purchase it again?
