Z does say Boot :/
Disconnect Z? How to do this, and what to do if the PC does not boot after this?!
By the way Z was some time ago the Boot disk for Win7 in 32 bits then I deleted all, re-installed Win7-32 on another disk, formatted Z and am using now to store films... hum... torrents
Hi,
If it will not boot
Insert your 64 bit installation media and try start up repair.
Startup Repair - Run 3 Separate Times
hmm... For doing this test I better would physically disconnect the Z drive, then try booting. If it does not, I will just plug it again and have a look :)
Anyway that wasn't the problem, as I (just) want to remove the E partition...
Well, my initial problem is solved, I could delete the E partition and all is working fine after I modified the Boot menu etc. The file that was in use was made by Acronis software that I used earlier on the 32 bit copy, then on the 64 bit It seems it kept the initial place in the 32 bit copy, and used this file. I uninstalled Acronis then could delete the partition, will just reinstall it now on the 64bit copy.
Tomorrow will have a look at the "boot Z" disk!
Thank you everybody for your help, fast and accurate :) Have a god day night, 1.30 AM in Moscow, going to bed
I don't use torrents, so i don't know what problems that might cause.
You could try MiniTool Partition Wizard bootable CD to see if you can delete the partition when Windows is not running.

Have everything backed up before making changes.
We cross posted at the same time !
See you got it solved
