I recently bought a 3TB replacement drive for a PC of mine that DOES NOT have a UEFI BIOS. I converted it on my primary PC to GPT being ignorant of the fact that legacy BIOS do not support booting from a GPT drive (or maybe it's a Windows thing), so I re-formatted in with diskpart in the recovery console inside the Windows 7 installation disk and it split the drive in two. A 2TB partition and a 746GB partition, which is fine.
The problem is, when I try to format the 746GB of unallocated space in disk management in Windows 7, all it does is give me an error and deny me. Having the 2TB partition and the 746GB partition is fine. I just need both to be usable.
All input it is appreciated.
