But while reinstalling I see two partitions.Drive 0 Partition 1 -------- Total size: 15.0MB Type: MSR ReservedDrive 0 Partition 2Reinstalling windows10 and actual C drive partition is not visible :Data -------- Total size: 931.5GB Free space:239.1GB Type: PrimaryWhy cant I see my initial partition sizes? If both are merged why I cant see 1TB+256GB size disk.I read somewhere it might be because of my iTUNES installed with my account. True? How to proceed further?Thanks in advance

    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
