So I installed a new HDD, and now I want to move my OS (win7) to a bigger partition on the new HDD.

I've already tried Shadow Copy, but it tells me to check task manager, to see it vssvc.exe is running, which it isn't, and I can't make it run.

Any idea as to how I can go about this, and still have all my programs work?

[QUOTE="Recontrooper"]I would go with the illusion personally because I'm not a big fan of coolmaster, IMO it just seems the antec 300 gives you the most for your money while with the cm 690 doesn't.Marfoo

[QUOTE="Antisimal"]I was "forced" the side panel window. I actually wanted it without it, and there was no indication on the box, that it came with the window panel. But what can you do? And I'm warming up to it.Marfoo

I have the CM 690 and I love it!

But... the cable holders aren't too good. One of them blocks two of the SATA ports on my MoBo, and another is in the way of my GPU, os I had to cut it off.

And the toolless clamps that are supposed to support the GPU and other PCIe cards did not fit on my GTX 275.

I had to cut those down as well. And the "multimedia panel" is on the top, so if you're gonna use them a lot, you don't want it to be under a desk.

But other than that, it's a great case, that's looks gorgeous, and and it fits my stuff.

And as the guy above me said, it's pretty damn cold to sit next to it.

My old Pentium 4 computer turned my room into an oven, but this thing is like an AC.

When I insert the windows 7 disk, the installation doesn't show the HDD that wasn't formated the first time, and it doesn't give me the option to format the HDD it can see.

And as I said before, I can't go through disk manager, cause it doesn't load, just says connecting to virtual disk service, and then nothing.

But device manager shows the HDD, and that it has the latest drivers.

It doesn't.

It shows under disk drives in device manager, but not under my computer.

When I was installing Windows 7, I was stupid enough to only format the HDD I installed Windows on, but not the other.

And since the Virtual Disk Service doesn't seem to work, I can't format the other.

So, I'm running Windows 7, and when I try and open disk management so I can install a HDD, it just says "Connecting to Virtual Disk Service" and does nothing else.

I've tried what I could, from the answers google gave me, but nothing changes, except it says "Unable to connect to Virtual Disk" until I restart my computer.

Now, is there a program that'll let me do the same things, as the disk manager that comes with Windows 7?

Yeah, all the fans are off.

Hey, when I tell my computer to shut down, it shuts down everything, except for the motherboard.

It's a Gigabyte EX58-UD5 and the power button on it is still emittting light, as well as the help light on the back of the I/O plate.

It's really annoying, since it lights up the room, but I also have it set in a power saving connection box, so when the computer shuts down, so should the monitor and the sound system, but since the motherboard still seems to draw power, they don't shut down either.

Anybody have an idea on how to actually make it shut down completely?
