To delete the extended drive ... first you have to delete all the logical paritions in the extended drive. Then only u can delete the extended drive.\n\nYou can also use ...partition magic software also. It is very handy. \n\nYou can also boot with winxp CD and can repartion the hard disk.

Replace the Hdd. This is the easiest solution.\nThere are other things to try but, it is best left to someone who already knows how to do it. IF you did, you would not be asking.

What I would do is re-install Windows and all your software on the new HD and slave your current crashed HD without formatting see if you can recover any data from it.  Here are instructions on HD installation. http://www.basichardware.com/HowTo_Install_Hard_Drive.html

Have you got any data on the drive you want to keep ?\n\nIf not just make a boot disk ( www.bootdisk.com ) and use fdisk to partition the drive and then install windows.\n\nIf you do have data then I suggest you connect the hard drive to another machine as a slave and back it up and then put it back into the machine and format it and re install windows.\n\nThere are other ways of backing up the data, please post back and let me know if you need further help.

There might be multiple partitions, i.e a 2GB C: drive and a 18GB D: drive. If this is the case then you can, of course, still use all of the drive the way it is, but if you wanted to make it all one partition you'd need to format the drive and reinstall windows.

if there is some free space left in your harddisk u can do it safely .. i suggest u to use partition magic software (or something like this one) instead of using windows cd to create a new partition\n\nand u should create a extended partition and then create a logical partition for the new partition on your harddisk so you didnt lost the primary partition of your harddisk

with out a program called partition magic(or something like it) you will have to restore your comuter with the windows disk and it will ask if you want to partition it. After it is done you will need to format the extra drives. It will ask you if you want to when you try to access it.

You need to format your computer. How many partitions are there on your hard disk. When format your PC, set the size for your system drive ( C: ) not more than 10 GB. Other reason may be that you are using a short memory RAM. If RAM is of 128 MB or more than that, the RAM is probably defected. But I am sure you format your PC your problem will be over.\nGood Luck.

use "DiskInternals Undelete" to recover the lost data to another proper drive, then you can reformat the c: drive and the it should work fine.. install windows then copy the recovered data back to the formatted drive

Go to start>>settings>>control panel>>administrative tools>>computer management>>storage>>disk management. Can you see your drive there? In case you can just format and partition it. In case this procedure doesn't solve your problem just check the jumpers.

Format the partition back to FAT32 or NTFS. You can do this by using your windows installation CD or if you know to use the FDISK command (Windows or Linux)\n\nIf that doesn't work you can use a partitioning tool like Ranish partition manager(Free) - http://www.ranish.com/part/ or Partition Magic(Commercial) to format the Linux partition(s)

If you need to format the hard drive, it may mean you have lost the contents. However there are companies that can recover some or all of your data at a significant fee.
