Thank you for ALL your help Nigel, I appreciate the Lenovo information, which I am familar with since (for no apparent reason) they shipped the system with the OS, OneKey and OneKey Backups, on a 30GB "C" Drive although they had a 270GB "D" available. After numerous complaintts they came up with a patch, which I installed this morning and then started encountering my self inflicted problems.
In any event, a couple of comments / questions.
You that that "Your screen shot shows this except that the d: drive has been further partitioned into D:, E:, F:, G:, & H: Drives". True, I partitioned the "D" Drive into seperate Drives / Partitions for: Programs, Data files, Photos and BU Files.
You also wrote
eleting the EISA partition will remove your ability to perform a OneKey system restore", which makes NO SENSE to me since this Partition is on the External Drive which I created (not Lenovo).
Am I missing something?
Also, for some reason the External Drive does NOT appear when I click on Start ---> Computer (it DID appear until I started playing around with things).
I also re-named the External Drive, could it be that the new Drive letter ("Z" Drive") for the External Drive (that INCLUDES the 16.08 EISA), won't show up until I restart my system?
Thanks again for the great help.
Bob
