Glad to help, very welcome. :)
Partition Wizard is a great recommendation, but I like EASEUS a lot personally since it's stable and works without having to boot off a CD (unless you need to manage the system partition of course).

Hi I've read everything here as I have a similar problem.
New 4tb HDD (WD) which I initially shrunk to make a 2nd partition of 1677GB (weird number I know). That's turned into unallocated space.
As with the other person's problem, New Simple Volume (spanned and stripped) are all greyed out.
I created as a test another by shrinking 100GB - that I could create a "new simple volume"
However, I cannot extent either one to include the 1.6tb that's unallocated
I've downloaded EaseUS but it says "unsupported disk"
I have nothing on this drive, just bought it - is there any way I can return it to original state? In Properties, what would "disable" or "uninstall" do?
Let us see a screenshot of Disk Management - Post a Screen Capture Image.
Tell us exactly what you want to do.
You can always delete and create new partitions. Why extend if there's no data?
here you are
I might not be using the right terminology. I wanted 2 partitions on this drive, one for my picture archive and the other for movies.
Is the first partition the correct size you want? If not delete and create it again.
Then create partition in Unallocated space.
Yes it is
that's just it, in the unallocated space, the "new simple volume" is greyed out. All I have is properties and help
Try creating smaller partitions.
Try using Partition Wizard CD.
I can with the "F" but that's not what I want to do
I want to turn the unallocated space into a drive
Try PArtition Wizard Boot CD. Burn ISO with Windows Image Burner.
ok will try, thanks
