    help with partitions when reinstalling windows


    Hello- I am currently attempting to upgrade my windows 10 pro x32 to a windows 10 pro x64 via usb, and I have got to the partitions screen and I have absolutely no idea as to what to do. I have three partitions-

    Drive 0 Partition 1 System Reserved total space 100.0MB free space 63.0MB type system,

    Drive 0 Partition 2 Total size 465.2gb free space 420gb primary type

    and

    Drive 0 Partition 3 total size 450.00MB and Free space 88MB, OEM reserved.

    I am able to refresh, delete, extend and load driver, but i am unable to use "new" and "extend".

    Please can you tell me what to do- articles online have made me feel quite confused.

    Thanks

    :)

    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
