Dynamic Disks and Windows XP Pro.
 
Hello.

For unforseen reasons, I had to take an internal drive and give it the ol' External shaboom.

This drive holds all of my programs, along with backups.
Not understanding/paying attention, this drive became a Dynamic Disk. Because of this, it won't boot up with the rest of the operating system (I need to go into Disk Management and "Enable" the disk, since it gets the "offline" status.) I need to know how to make this disk boot up with the rest of the operating system on startup.

Anybody know how?

No, I was specifically looking for a way to either:
  • Get the disk to boot up with the rest of the disks (like a standard boot up routine)
  • Convert the Disk to a regular Disk without having to format (which is what converting does, it formats)

The reason being so that I don't have to do a backup. But if I do have to format, then I will. Backing up being a last-resort deal, you see?

I wonder if Partition Magic can do that..

EDIT: Sorta off topic Zerg but, can you send me a PM with any/all info on the CIVAL WAR comic series going on?
Spoiler:
specifically, why TONY STARK and PETER PARKER are ONCE AGAIN giving away their true identities, and why Captain America is BACK and is fighting Iron Man AGAIN!?

Errr Ness, that might be better answered in the Comic Book subforum :p 'Sides, Civil War has ended and you can now read ALL the sordid details!

I didn't know they had ended, since they had JUST COME OUT IN MY AREA, ZERGRINCH.

I also found a temp solution to my problem, even though I haven't tried it yet.

Link is http://64.233.167.104/search?q=cache...lnk&cd=1&gl=us


And, at some point since you're good at diagnostics, I'd like you to take a "checkup" on my machine.
