What do you mean by "delete my old disk structure" ? all you need to do is to delete the partition and recreate it a again...or am I missing understanding it !!!


Cheers

Old disk structure usually means he has ran a "non destructive recovery" which supposedly backs up data and stores it in to a folder called "old disk structure"

I guess the only way to delete this is to do a complete over all of your system and wipe it clean.

deleting old disk structure

I have the same problem. On the system (XP) partition now I have six files named old disk structure. They take about 10 Giga of my system disk. I try to delete them but this is not possible.
Can anybody help me how to do this?? Deleting the partition should be the last.
