In My Computer you may have noticed the availability of two drive partitions (C: and D:). Your hard disk 
drive comes from the factory with 2 logical partitions. This does not mean that your computer contains two 
physical hard disks.

When you start using your computer, your C: partition (also referred to as C: drive) contains all the files 
required by Windows

®

 and other preinstalled software, while the D: drive is empty. The D: drive is the ideal 

storage space for all your documents and files, especially larger ones like digital motion pictures captured 
by DVgate.

✍

To optimise data storage, use the C: drive to install new applications, and save all your documents and files to the D: drive. Moreover, doing so will 
prevent the loss of your data in case you need to perform a system recovery.

Do not try to add, delete, or resize partitions unless you really need to. Changing partition settings might delete all your files on the hard disk.
If you need to perform a system recovery, but do not want to lose all the data stored on your hard disk, copy all the files you want to keep on the 
D: drive. During the system recovery process, choose to keep the current partition information. Doing so will keep your D: drive unchanged after the 
recovery process.
If you do need to change the size of your partitions, you can do so by choosing Option Recovery in the system recovery set-up process. In this case, 
it is important to be aware that all data on your hard disk will be deleted. If you need to keep existing files, make sure you back them up before 
performing the system recovery.
