  1. Windows won't boot after repartitioning drive


    I have had a pc with windows running on it for a year that took me over a month of research and troubleshooting to get running. I ran out of storage and repartitioned the SSD without realizing that I should make a backup. It runs a grub dual boot with linux and as expected linux still works. The computer has 256GB of DDR3 ram, 2 Xenon e2690 CPUs, 4GTX TITANs, and a supermicro X9DRG-QF motherboard. I am wondering if there is a way to fix the booting issue from the working linux operating system. Both operating systems run on the same 500GB SSD. I have tried replacing the MBR from linux to no

  2. Repartitioning a Windows 10 PC?

    I have a HP-P077tx laptop with Windows 10 installed, upgraded from Windows 8.1 which was preinstalled.

    Now I was planning to change the size and number of partitions of my hard drive and reinstalling windows 10 with a bootable Windows 10 usb drive. I have couple of question regarding that:-

    • Since I am repartitioning I saw some hidden partitions like 'efi' containing windows boot manager and some recovery partition. But I have already made a backup of all the useful data, so during formatting and repartitioning of hard drive druing install,
      should I remove all partitions or should I leave these recovery partition and efi partition for safe install?? And mind it I have already made backup of necessary files and software
    • Second, since I am doing a clean install using bootable usb drive do I need installation key as my PC came preinstalled with windows and I do not have a key...

    Windows won't boot after repartitioning drive

    Sabertooth 990fx won't boot to windows logo, it shuts down

    to boot and enter bios and load windows, any todays PSU (with the correct plugs) will work, AFAIK

    to enter BIOS only low wattage is used.
    Then, during boot, the HDD and a bit later the videocard card start to demand juice, then the other devices and periphericals... so the total demand during boot up is incrementing step by step, that's why a failure halfway could indicate a PSU problem....
