Hi let me explain my problem.
On first image you see all my disks, partition named second disk is disk1, and other 3 partitions (storage,local disk A & B) is disk2. Disk2 was all in one before all this.

Now, my problem is when i wanted to shrink disk2 to create more partitions, i manage to do it, but i was able to see only storage(O:) and the other 2 partitions was invisible. Storage has files other 2 was empty. Then i used partition "find and mount" tool to find them and assign them a letter. Because you see in picture 2 i was unable to see partitions in disk managment tool in win7.
Then i was able to see local disk A & B but when i want to copy some files to them i can not do it like i cant format or disk check any of that 2 disks. Always says "the disk is write protected, remove write protection or use another disk. So then i tried that with CMDprompt, but then i got this when tried both ways. Picture 3 will tell you what i mean. On pic 3 i tried to go with list volume
first, then again i can only see storage(O:), but local disk A & B is not here. And when i try list disk then i see whole second disk like he is not partitioned at all. So in conclusion, i manage to bring back local disk A & B, but cant do anything with them because its write protected and i dont know how to remove that. i tried all this but not worked. so if any one has some idea then please tell me. i searched so many forums but cant find the solution.
thanks.

For your disk with A B and Storage - How big is the hard drive to begin with? There may be an issue with the drive it self since the other partitions aren't showing up in Disk managment

As for the 3 Picture in Disk part you have to first go

List Disk

you get the list of disk which is show there. That is PHYSICAL Disk NOT Partitions

You then want to go and type

Select Disk 1

List partition

And then it should list your partitions

do that and see if they show up.

but sounds like there may be a hard drive issue going on.

thanks for the answer, but manage to do it other way.. i save all data from storage partition to an external disk, then i format that disk, but full format, no quick, and then he merge all 3 partitions in one hole disk. so now its fine, just need to partition it again and then fresh instal of win7.

thanks.
