If you open the properties of a drive in device manager, the object path will be listed under "Physical Device Object name" in the details tab.

Could it just be semantics and inconsistency with Microsoft naming convention for devices that is confusing you? None of the suggestions worked. Add a comment. Active Oldest Votes.

I get the error :The term 'get-physicaldisk' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program.

Chec k the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again. You lack "the Get-PhysicalDisk cmdlet". What does it come with?

I can only assume that the 40Gb partition is a Dell Factory Restore partition. Since I've never ordered a system without a factory installed operating system, I can only assume this.

The 2Gb partition was most likely the Dell Diagnostics partition that was overwritten and named OS when you installed Windows 7. For more information on creating an UBCD go here: www. Windows 7 is the best choice for you laptop. I doubt if any Windows XP drivers are available for your laptop.

Since you installed Windows 7 from a DVD, you need to go the the Dell Drivers and Download site and download the appropriate Windows 7 drivers for your laptop. Be sure to install the Notebook System Software first, followed by the chipset drivers. This is normal. Your system is already optimized for maximum memory usage. Thanks for wishing me well. I'm actually in pretty good shape now. It's one of about 32 such clinics nationwide. In I had 18 blood transfusions to offset a gastrointestinal bleed.

I just want your support to get more info about the Factory restore partition you mentioned in last reply. How can I utilize that space, does OS creates a restore point there to backup all the needful things or what else I had to do with that Partition. I have clearly understood what you guided me. I have managed to deal with the partitions now, changed the drive letter appropriately now the error for which the thread have been started is resolved now : But if I reinstall Win 7, Hope it will not appear again.

Fingers crossed. But please clear my doubt at this moment which can help me sorting out problems later on. I had installed Win 7 32 Bit version on my laptop at the moment, which is not supporting all the drivers and utilities drivers which Dell provided with the closed pack sent with the laptop.

Suggest me..!! There are some limitations I think with 64 bit OS. Is that so? Ok, one more thing. Why Dell prefers to install driver in a particular order? I can certainly get the serial numbers, but not sure how that would help me determine what slot this error is referring to as the error does not reference the serial number. Through some further investigation, I did notice the following. We have two external drives, each with two drives in them, which is where part of our backups are going.

I noticed through a corresponding error in Backup Exec that Windows is NOT showing 2 of the drives, so I am investigating that avenue and checking out the enclosure connection.

I am not sure what has happened. However, I am not sure it would be this that the errors are referring to though because if they are not connected for whatever reason then how would it be getting this disk error? Maybe just coincidence? Windows routine "Hides" External Devices dedicated to Backup to stop users storing "the wrong kind of data" on them - that would explain what you see. The only tool I know of that uses this notation is dd for windows. You can try it to make sure which drive it is.

James - That is what I tried just now. I just unplugged it and am still getting the error so I believe it might be just coincidence. If all else fails, I suppose I could just do a chkdsk on all of them and see if that helps for now. It will take forever though so I am not sure if that will work.
