After long use of First fence -ISR on windows 7; last week the computer got broken. the power was broken but also several other expensive things. I did have him 5 years , so i decided to buy a new one. In this new one, was also a SSD drive, with 2 extra partitions. One you need to save the windows 7, together with a recovery disk; size 9 GB, and another named "system" with a size of 400 MB. So i did delete the recovery part with a HD manager. But i am anxious to do the deleting of that 400 MB part. Is it the controller in software , or could I delete it, without troubles.? The fact is , i could not use again First defence -ISR again. the popup-message said that the first part of the drive should be empty. With normal manager , i can't see that partition. I do see them with paragon HD manager suite 12. I do see that partition is written in NTFS , but has other sector sizes, cluster etc. What is the best thing to do ? When i erase that part , will the SSD stil work ? That with windows 7 on it or will i install it for the third time ? Frits Egelie
I beleive for FD-ISR to work you need to: 1. Delete the 400MB partition 2. Install Vista boot sector files. Here is how to delete the 400MB System Recovery Partition (SRP): http://www.terabyteunlimited.com/kb/article.php?id=409 If you don't have Vista sector boot files, they are in this Sticky thread: https://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=267909 Best regards, Mohamed
Mohamed, thanks. ! You know much about it. I did succeed in your response! So all works fine now. The SSD disk is small 112 GB, so not much copy's to write! Again many many thanks! Frits Egelie
Likewise thanks for the links. I don't know if i can successfully apply this mod to one of my 8 units but i am going to experiment with the possibility. And if it pans out many many thanks in advance. Easter
