Hi Maria,

You can use the File Explorer to scan your external thumb drive. To get started, please follow the steps below.

• Open the File Explorer.
• Locate the H drive that you'd like to scan.
• Right-click it and select Properties.
• Go to Tools tab and click Check under

How to install Windows XP on a separate internal h/drive


Thank you to all who have responded so fast! Here's some more info, i have Win10 already installed on one h/drive & need to know in simple steps how to install Win XP on my 2nd h/drive which is internally mounted & empty. I know how to switch between them once the 2 systems are installed.

 

Drive H: reserved for system nearly full


If it's the system partition, it typically contains your boot information for starting the computer. It doesn't typically get assigned a drive letter. You can press [Windows key + x] select "Disk Management". If you see the H drive with the label "system partition" then that is all it is. Assuming the partition is on your main disk (Disk 0) you can remove the drive letter as follows

• Open an elevated command prompt
• Type diskpart
• Type list disk
• Identify which disk the system partition is on (you can do this from disk management)
• Select the disk withselect disk #
• Now list the partitions with list vol
• Look for the one with System under the info column
• Select it with select vol #
• Now remove the drive letter with ​remove letter=H
