    C.\ accidentally set to activate, repaired via boot USB - How to deactivate and boot from...


    Good morning everybody,System: Windows 10I accidently activated my Windows Partition C:\ which resulted in the system being unable to boot. To solve this I created a boot USB and chose the repair option, which allowed me to boot the computer normally, again.However, my C:\ ist still set to active. To compensate for it Windows created a very small G:\which it uses to boot. I noticed that G:\ now is under full load 100% in task manger and that it makes my computer slow or unresponsive.I would like set C:\ to inactive again and boot from C:\ again. Sadly Google hasn't been helpful here and ke

    Booting from USB on x38 Motherboard, NOT?

    Typically the USB should be listed under the hard drive boot order. Set your "Boot Device Priority" to HDD first, then set the hard drive boot order to the USB stick first.

    Wiped Hard Drive Can't Boot Vista

    I did try every possible boot order and even with deactivated options, which I don't even know how or if that is helpful. I will try the Vista possibilities. The OS was listed in the BIOS, whatever that means, and it said it was a factory version, which I think is a good thing.

    The PXE error messages may have occurred when I activated the network adapter and tried that in the boot order. Obviously, I am in way over my head. Thanks for the suggestions!
