partion problem

Go to solution Solved by Jarsky,

What have you done to these disks?

 

Disk 6 looks like an OEM install, but you've deleted the main data partition that Windows would be on.

So if you just want that to be an empty disk, then just right click on each partition and delete them. This will give you a full Unallocated space - which you can right click and format and assign a drive a letter. They're all recovery and boot partitions.

 

Disk 7 you can delete the OEM Partition.

In order to use that space on Disk 7 and Disk 5 though you would need something like Partition Magic, to expand your partition across the unallocated space.

how could i make all of my disks look like disk 8 with one partion not 5 or 4

also if i have my ssd plugged in(not pictured) and disk 6 which has win 8 on it(got it from a friend) if i have them both plugged in it boots onto the hdd not the ssd. would making it one partion help?

finnaly hoow could i make so stuff does not download onto my ssd i only 20gb left

 

 

cat for ur trouble

Use a bootable partitioning tool like Partition Magic to delete and reallocate your partitions.

 

For you other question, you want to go into C:\users folder and find the folder such as Desktop,Downloads,Music etc etc... Right click them and select properties > go to the Location tab and change the drive letter from C: to whatever drive you want it on and that's it. Do the same for the other folders.
