Manual for Advance 10TM
7.
Why does the remainder size plus partitions size not match the total
size shown in RecoveryEasy sometimes?
When the location of partitions is not continuous, the above problem exists.
8.
Are there any other disk partition tools that can modify the partition table
made by RecoveryEasy?
RecoveryEasy provides a write-protect function, so the disk tools such as Fdisk,
Partition Magic, BootMenu, SmartDisk and BootStar can not modify the partition
table created by RecoveryEasy. Some of the applications even terminate during
operation. However the disk tools bundled in the OS such as Windows NT,
Windows 2000, Unix and OS2 could change the mirror partition.
9.
Why does it happen that a prompt “
installation can not continue”
pops
up when installing Windows98 or a yellow exclamation mark shown
beside IDE device in system properties?
During Windows 98 installation, the installation program will write to MBR (Master
Boot Record) which is protected by RecoveryEasy, therefore the installation will
be terminated. To avoid this problem, a “ATTRIB PAR” button is provided in
Recovery User Interface. Enable this switch before installing Windows 98, then
the installation will be successfully completed. In order to remove the yellow
question mark before IDE devices in Device Manager, enable this switch once
more after system reboot.
10.
Why does the converting of FAT16->FAT32 in PQ Magic go wrong?
MBR will be accessed when converting FAT16 to FAT32 with PQ Magic, which is
protected by RecoveryEasy, therefore the conversion will be invalidate. Enabling
the “ ATTRIB PAR” switch from Recovery User Interface before converting can
avoid this problem. It’s the same situation as “FAT32 Converter” provided in
11.
What if partitions be wrongly deleted in RecoveryEasy?
If users delete a partition in RecoveryEasy by mistake, they can save it by
pressing the Reset button on their system at once. Do not press the “ESC”
key to quit RecoveryEasy, this will save the change. Do not try to create the
partition again, since creating partition will clear all the content of the partition.
12.
What is multi-boot?
RecoveryEasy can implement the multi-boot function by activating different
partition. For example on the hard disk, partition C contains DOS, partition D
contains Windows 95 version, partition E contains Windows 98 version, when
activating partition C in RecoveryEasy, the system enters DOS, when activating
partition E, the system enters Windows 98 version.
