Issue with accessing 2 NTFS partitions
Hey guys :) I hope you can help me with this issue, seems nobody knows of it.
I now have a problem with Win 7 (RTM edition) as follows:
I have SATA1 drive 500gb: 1 Primary, and 5 logical or whatever you call that. Of these, I only see 3 (2 are unassigned letters, and when I try to get there, I get the error "The operation failed to complete because the disk managment console view is not up-to-date. Refresh view by................" (obviously this doesnt work).
I also have the new SATA2 1TB hdd split into 4 partitions (one of them is the OS ones) as well as Disk0 which is older 120gb U-ATA hdd.
Obviously I mean the two rightmost partitions from Disk1.
Also, I copied everything from that partition to another new one using XP, then tried to format it - which failed with some error... anyway tried to format it from this screen as well in 7, but it gave another error: "An unexpected error has occured. Check the system event log blabla...
This is from the event log (I think its the relevant error):
Code:Log Name: System Source: VDS Basic Provider Date: 19/10/2009 11:50:42 Event ID: 1 Task Category: None Level: Error Keywords: Classic User: N/A Computer: Gena-Desktop Description: Unexpected failure.
