| | System Protection Strange Hello guys I needed to do a system restore this morning and when I looked and the drive options there all in an odd sort of order.I only have system protection activated on my system drive so i thought that would be at the top of the list like it always has been but its not.I dont know what order there in it makes no sense.Its not causing me any problems but just wondered how other peoples partitions and drives are ordered I always thought it was by letter but not the case here.Does anyone know how to re order them. Mine are E:80gig F:18gig C:system 80gig D:120gig Thanks Danny Last edited by xxxdannyxxx; 04-15-2011 at 07:45 AM.. |

| | It may be a messed up MBR (as it holds the partition table too). See if repairing it does any good. How to repair MBR on Windows 7 | eHow.com And to be honest, i'm not good in this field. MAy be other folks could help you. I'll do post if I find any solution though. |

| | Thanks EzioAuditore Its not a concern at present this installs been fine for 5 months ive only just noticed it.I just thought they would be ordered either by drive letter or size or something and with the system drive first. Mine have no order at all that I can see. In vista and xp and even previous 7 installs im sure the system drive was first then the others in drive letter order. Thanks Though Danny |

| Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit 7601 Multiprocessor Free Service Pack 1 | They are in a random order on mine too. I don't think it is a problem. |

All I can think is the first 2 partitions listed are extended logical partitions.This is the first time ive had logical partitions as i ran out of primary.Maybee these get listed first Danny Last edited by xxxdannyxxx; 04-15-2011 at 07:45 AM.. |
