Windows 10: Hello I am having a problem which might be associated with hard drive issue.

I wanted to partition drive c in my hp elitebook 820 but got an error "there is no enough space to complete the program" I manouvered around to find any solutions but to me none ever worked. I came across aomei partition assistant software that I thought could be a remedy to my problem.i downloaded it and installed. On complete partitioning and on clicking restart PC, my PC entered boot mode with an error," boot device not found please install an operating system" Non of the possible solutions in the websites have worked for me but takes me to the same point. I tried installing windows 11 os

Optical Drive Issue

Hello Anak –

Appreciate your detailed return. Your added steps really helped.

Assuming I did the steps correctly, this is where I am now.

Screenshot 12 shows my CD Disc shortcut on my desktop.
Screenshot 10 shows the CD Drive shortcut listed in the “Send to” listing.
Screenshot 11 shows the “Send to” listing after the steps were taken, but the CD drive name is not listed.

So, it appears the steps did not work for me. And, I did try the steps, “If it still won’t do ……” and still no luck.

What do you think?

Hi,

Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community.

• What error message do you receive when you try to access it?
• Did you make any changes to the hard drive before this issue?
• Is the Hard drive BitLocker enabled?

Run
Check Disk and check if it helps.

I suggest you to run Check Disk which performs an analysis of the disk. Refer to the steps below:

• Press Windows key + X.
• Click on Command prompt (Admin).
• Type chkdsk /f and hit enter.

Also, try to run Microsoft Safety Scanner. It helps remove viruses, spyware, and other malicious software. It works with your existing antivirus software.
