Form my experience it's a early sign of any issue in Hard Disk circuit. It'll be best if take backup of your data and take the hard disk to a hardware technician as early as possible. Otherwise you may loose your data.

"Unable to find a free MBR slot in virtual partition.dll usually due to no free...

Situation:
When attempting to run an operation in Ghost that requires a reboot into the virtual partition, you receive the error "Unable to find a free MBR slot in virtual partition.dll--usually due to no free slots on disk."

Solution:
This problem occurs when the client computer has used up all four primary partitions in the partition table of the boot drive. An Extended partition takes up one Primary Slot, so having three Primary partitions and one Extended partition would also cause this issue.

Computer architecture allows each hard drive to have no more than four primary partitions (the other partitions are extended partitions). Because the Ghost Virtual Partition is implemented as a primary partition, you see this message when the disk is using all four primary partitions and does not have an available slot for the virtual partition.

Use one of the following methods to resolve the problem

Start the computer from a Ghost bootable floppy disk rather than a Ghost Virtual Partition. You can use Ghost Boot Wizard to create a Ghost Standard Book Disk for this purpose.
Repartition the disk. If you repartition the disk, ensure that you create backups of your data before doing so.

Perhaps you have deleted your D: partition accidentally.

Only 125G is showing

A disk-drive can be "partitioned".

It's possible that your disk-drive has two partitions:
* a "primary" partition of 125G,
* an "extended" partition of the "other" 125G,
with a "logical" drive allocated within the extended partition.

Inside your laptop, you would have seen 'C:' as the "primary", and 'D:' as the "logical" partition, and 'E:' as your CD/DVD drive.

So, if UBUNTU is only looking at the "primary" partition, it will report 125GB.

Connect the drive as a "slave" to some desktop computer, and check for having multiple partitions, and do your backup from that system.

Hard Drive Capacity Stuck at 33.8 GB

You are probably using FAT32 for your partition on your drive: the limit for FAT32 is 32GB. Alternatively, you are using NTFS but your partition has been limited to that particular size.

You could you a Disk partition manager to change the format of your partition to NTFS or if you are already using this format extend the partion size to your requirements.

A safer alternative, if your current partition is set smaller than your drive size is to create additional primary or secondary partitions to fully utilize the available capacity: you could use (with great caution and only if you are experience) standard Windows Control Panel -> Systems and Security -> Admistrative Tools -> Computer management -> Disk management

I have a samsung sp1203N 120gig capacity, running with a new WDC WD5000AAKS-00A7B2 500GB HD ,as the primary drive on windows 7. My problem is that my samsung drive is only reading at a 31.4 GB capacity...

On XP, it was Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Computer Management, Disk Management.

Upgrade the 120gb to a Dynamic disk and then extend the partition, or if there's no data on it yet, delete the 32gb and create a 120gb one.

Should not be that different under Win7. Hasn't changed much since NT4.0

160GB st3160215a shows on 40 gb on my p4vmm2 v8.1 mboard.

It might be partitioned to 40 GB.

Restart the computer, go to the setup page and look for the hard drive and check the size indicated there. If the size is 160GB, you will have to create another partition in Windows (I assuming your are using XP). Go to Control Panel - Administrative Tools.
Look for the Disk Manager and Select your Disk. It should have a 40GB primary partition and 120GB of unpartitioned space.
Just right click it and select create and extended partition.

Good luck

HDD data recovery

most hard drives have that erie only 2 partitians at a time this is with your computer how it can handle since you made three particians there is a chance that it only allows partitions of only 2

say for instance you have a celeron your comp would only allow what you memmory can give you this would knock out the 2 partician when created the 3rd partician
not enough memmory to fill all 3 partitians

safe end to this particians in long run can hurt your comp more than help it i suggest buying another hdd to make your back ups or get a portable pull out system hdd this ensures your files are as easy to get as putting in a new hard drive
hope this gave some insite

You are very lucky, I just got the useful information about extend partition, I can share with you.
My friend told me, Extend Partition Assistant Professional Edition can work well.
They often resize partition (extend partition, shrink partition…) through it, so, I can promise you--it worth to try.
And good luck!

If Vista is installed in C drive then you are unable to extend that partition becus it's a boot drive.
Other partition can be extended via PartitionMagic 7.0 or high or similar software.
