Ptedit For Windows

1 Jan 2000admin

Apparently PTEDIT32 can edit partitions, making partitions that are hidden, visible. My purpose is to take a hidden partition on a toshiba laptop (the recovery partition) and copy it as my hard drive is beginning to fail. My problem, is that I cannot find PTEDIT32 documentation on what I want to change the partition # to. I know that changing it from 27 to 7 would change it from hidden to active - but if I set it to active, I am worried it will try to launch the recovery mode (as that is what it did on a previous laptop) Here is the link I used for instructions to do this on a previous laptop: So how to make the hidden partition visible without it actually RUNNING the recovery mode?

Sponsoring website: FREE Software Tools for Windows 95/98/NT/2000/XP (some as stated are only for Win95/98/NT) The following table contains a select group of Programs or Registry files which solve Windows System problems or functional deficits, or significantly help you to get better use of your computer. ( Unless otherwise noted, the files here are for ALL Windows™ OSs. They should function normally on Win NT/2000/XP, but we would be interested in any feedback from users of these versions. There are a few compatibility notes listed under specific applications below.) Images next to filenames or links have these meanings: = Immediate download of the file from The Starman's Realm (usually as a.ZIP file) = Link to another page of The Starman's Realm with download file = Link to an offsite webpage with file(s) to download All Software listed on this page is either. Totally FREE or Free for Personal use.

Note: If you don't see a program here to solve your problem, then ask me about it; I don't have time to list everything I use here, and there's almost always more than one way to do things! Programs Helpful To Everyone: • Desktop (Position) • ( FTP client with Windows-Explorer-like GUI ); very useful when you want to access an FTP server which returns ' extended information' that MS-Internet Explorer can NOT understand!

I use it for ALL my planned FTP sessions! • The Programmer's File Editor can be useful to anyone! Better than NOTEPAD for many tasks (but see TheGUN too!); has a line number toggle button.! A free Windows Notepad Replacement that opens Binary files too! All other NOTEPAD replacements I've seen complain when a file isn't plain Text. Even PFE32 will truncate long lines; not to mention damage binary files if you try saving them!

This program will also open files over 10 MB in size! (Great for Win 95/98 and although NT doesn't need it to open large files, you might like to try it out anyway! Can Win NT's Notepad save Binary files? The GUN can!) For the Advanced or ' ': • (.REG with.INF install/uninstall file) Made by The Starman! [Note: Part of the Windows 2000 File Manager's menu system acts strange with this, but I can live with it: It only affects the 'Open With' ---> 'Choose Program.' You can always un-install it if you don't like that.

Feel free to discuss this with me. It will not function under Windows XP; it installs ok, but does nothing!] • ( Link opens in a new window ). • The Programmer's File Editor allows you to capture DOS command screen output of any number of lines to an edit window in PFE. This is only one of it's many advanced features! Can convert UNIX text files to DOS (and vice versa) too. • A Hex / Decimal Converter and Color picker for HTML pages. Just for The Internet: • ( FTP client with Windows-Explorer-like GUI ) ( SEE ABOVE under 'Programs Helpful to Everyone') For TECHs, programmers and Advanced Hackers: • This is a true Physical or Logical hard drive Editor.

(Similar to Symantec's NORTON Disk Editor; except it won't display/guide you through Directory info. But it is designed for ANY x86 Operating System! Use it to examine NTFS, OS/2, even UNIX, etc.

Partitions; very small, run it from a floppy: comes with its own loader so it can boot itself without any OS on the floppy. It will run under DOS/Win95/98/maybe NT, but not under Windows 2000/XP, because they don't allow direct disk access. You can still use it to make changes to a drive that has those OSs on it though.) • Now runs under any Windows OS!!! If you're a tech at heart or an Assembly programmer, then read my page on here.
