Windows 10: Black screen after clicking "delete" on reserved disk partition

Don't ask me why I did this.I have a PC with asus motherboard. I wanted to reinstall windows 10 on my PC and for some reason I clicked on "delete" for msr reserved partitions of both my SSD and HDD, and as bonus I've cleared my disks via cmd.Now I sit in front of my PC that I can boot up, it does a little beep, then after some time it does beeeep-beep-beep-beep, and nothing's happening. No menus, no letters, no mouse appear on the screen. Absolutely nothing. Is there a way to do something, check something? Maybe someone just had the same issue?

W7 Hard drive partition issue

to get rid of that 100 meg windows partition that setup creates for you on a new install on a blank hdd:

- press shift+f10 when on the partition management screen in setup <-- this opens a command prompt
- diskpart <-- start the windows command line partition management tool
- list disk <--- list the installed hdds in this computer for the next step
- select disk 0 <- might have to replace 0 with the number of the correct disk
- clean <-- this will erase all data on the disk you selected one step up- dont use the wrong disk!
- create partition primary <- creates a primary partition taking up all space on the drive, adjust the command if necessary
- exit, exit to exit diskpart and the command prompt
- click refresh in partition manager and select your newly created partition and install to that

 

System Reserved Partition on Disk 1 not Disk 0

The results were the same as before: Windows is installed in a single 477 GB partition on Disk 0 and the System Reserved is in a 500 MB partition on Drive 1. The rest of Drive 1 is unallocated. This is identical to the configuration I had when I asked the
question.

The Media Creation Tool used to created the install ISO DVD is v. 10.0.14393 downloaded on 12/13/2016.

I followed your instructions:

• I selected Drive 0 and deleted the existing Windows partition.
• I clicked New and Apply. Windows then formatted Drive 0 as a single primary partition.
• The existing System Reserved partition was still on Drive 1.
• So I deleted the System Reserved partition on Drive 1 and the just created Primary partition on Drive 0
• I then selected Drive 0 and clicked New and Apply again. Same result a single Primary partition on Drive 0. Drive 1 was left unallocated.
• Upon completion of the install
  • Windows occupies about 15 GB in the only partition on Drive 0
  • The 500 MB System Reserved partition was placed on Drive 1
  • The rest of Drive 1 is unallocated.

How can I get the System Reserved partition to be placed as the Partition 1 on Drive 0 with Windows installed in Partition 2?

Thanks.

GPT Reserved Partition showing as Local Disk


Hi

I have a two laptops with Windows 10 x64. Recently I noticed new partition with next available letter. Size is 128mb and it can't be accessed. I checked in Disk Management but this partition is not listed there as per the below screen:





I used MiniTool Partition Wizard and managed to see details about this partition.





I tried Diskpart to remove Drive Letter but no luck:





This happened at the same time on my two HP laptops but not sure what could cause it. Maybe some Windows update? I do not remember installing any new apps. I would like to remove this disk from the list of available disks.





Can anyone suggest/advise how I can remove this from the list?

Thanks
