This article was previously published under Q102531<br />
<br />
</div><br />
<div class="symptoms_section"><br />
<br />
== SYMPTOMS ==<br />
<br />
Consider this drive layout:<br />
<pre class="fixed_text"> ---------------------------------<br />
| c: | d: | free space |<br />
---------------------------------<br />
</pre><br />
Where d: is where Windows NT is installed, AND it is a &quot;logical drive&quot; (extended partition).<br /><br />
<br /><br />
In this layout, the arcnames could be described:<br />
<pre class="fixed_text"> scsi(0)disk(x)rdisk(0)partition(1) c: drive<br />
scsi(0)disk(x)rdisk(0)partition(2) d: drive<br />
</pre><br />
If you go into windisk and create a new drive where the free space is, your arcnames change to:<br />
<pre class="fixed_text"> --------------------------<br />
| c: | d: | e: |<br />
--------------------------<br />
<br />
scsi(0)disk(x)rdisk(0)partition(1) c: drive<br />
scsi(0)disk(x)rdisk(0)partition(3) d: drive<br />
scsi(0)disk(x)rdisk(0)partition(2) e: drive<br />
</pre><br />
The d: drive becomes partition(3).<br /><br />
<br /><br />
NOTE: If the free space where e: was made is already within the extended region, this arcname change does not occur.<br /><br />
<br /><br />
You can encounter this problem any time you boot from a &quot;logical partition&quot; then make a new real partition on the same disk.<br />
<br />
</div><br />
<div class="cause_section"><br />
<br />
== CAUSE ==<br />
<br />
This change occurs because there can be only one extended region in the partition table of physical sector 0 on the drive, and it is always placed last in the table.<br /><br />
<br /><br />
Windisk knows you just changed the Windows NT boot tree from partition(2) to partition(3). It cannot pop up a message telling you to edit BOOT.INI, and change the 2 to a 3, so it generates an access violation<br /><br />
<br /><br />
Nothing is destroyed; your disk and the Windows NT tree are still there.<br />
<br />
</div><br />
<div class="workaround_section"><br />
<br />
== WORKAROUND ==<br />
<br />
<ol><br />
<li>If your c: drive is FAT, do the following:<br />
<ol style="list-style-type: lower-alpha;"><br />
<li>Boot MS-DOS.</li><br />
<li>Attrib -r -s -h BOOT.INI.</li><br />
<li>Edit BOOT.INI.</li><br />
<li>Change partition(x) to partition(x+1).</li></ol><br />
<br />
If your c: drive is not FAT, go to another computer and format a floppy disk. It will now have the Windows NT boot sector on it.<br /><br />
<br /><br />
</li><br />
<li>Copy NTLDR, NTDETECT.COM, and BOOT.INI to it.</li><br />
<li>Edit BOOT.INI, and start guessing as to what the arcname of your Windows NT root is.</li></ol><br />
