Answer» I recently bought a new HD for my HP pavillion 7400 Slimline. I installed WINDOWS XP but I screwed up and installed to the H drive. I'm trying to reinstall to the C drive, but I cannot create nor delete EITHER partition.
H: Partitional [NTFS] 953859MB (949225 MB free) Unpartitional Space 7MB Unknown Disk (There is no disk in this drive) There's two more unknown disks aftet that.
Any help?
Btw, it can't go online, so I'm using my Wii.How are you trying to repartition? It should be done by booting to the XP CD, starting the install routine, and then deleting and CREATING partitions.I put my XP disk in that came with my pc, that I used to install it before. It gives me the OPTION to install, delete, create, or quit. When I try to delete the partitional H drive from above, it says "setup is unable to perform the requested operation on the selected partition. This partition contains temporary Setup files that are required to complete the installation." You cannot try to do this from within Windows. You need to BOOT to the CD.Why thank you SIR. Select Cd/dvd drive as boot device?Yes sir.
