nkid Posted September 30, 2007 Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 A while back I wanted linux on my hard drive. I created an ext3 partition to store files. I've been using a program inside windows so I could mount and read the storage partition. Now having my hard drive split up like that was driving me nuts and since then I've deleted my linux partition so I decided to put it all back together. I deleted the partition and used partition magic to unify the hdd. The problem is that I still see an S: drive whenever I use a file browser. It's size is zero bytes and I can't access it.

ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted October 1, 2007 Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 Welcome to the Windows Forum.If you deleted the partition with Partition Magic, you shouldn't be seeing it anymore in Windows. What do you see when you open Computer Management | Disk Management - is the partition still showing there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarecrow Man Posted October 1, 2007 Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 You may need to format this partition before it is accessible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 Sorry, I don't see anything on your screenshot above - to small and blurred.Is it possible that you allocate that drive during startup, e.g. with a subst or net use command? If you boot into Safe Mode, is that drive also visible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
