G710 The OEM partition was half the size of the hdd – 465,76 GB

Lenovo G710 without OS (only DOS).
I installed Windows 7 (64 bit)  on it. The OEM partition was half the size of the hdd 465,76 GB. Everything is good it is a small OEM partition, but there is already too much . Can i delete it without consequences? And there does not store any important hiden files?
Moderator Note; subject edited

Hi Devidas, 
    I would suggest not deleting the OEM partition, as it contains system hidden files

  • G500 change MBR to GPT for win8 Install without deleting the oem partition

    Hi, I just bought Lenovo g500 and it came with Free DOS. Now I want to install windows 8 64-bit.
    My HDD came with:
    1 system partition of 1000 MB (maybe Free DOS partition?)
    959 518 MB Unallocated space
    1000 MB OEM - reserved partition
    It has MBR partition table. To install windows 8 64-bit I need to use UEFI boot with GPT partition table, so I need to convert the MBR table to GPT. Microsoft suggest to delete all partitions and convert to GPT using Diskart command, but if I delete all partitions I will lose the 1000 MB OEM partition (and oneKey recovery)
    Is there any solution on how to convert to GPT without losing the OEM partition? or I have to choose between win8 and OEM partition.

    Hi Gicevgoran,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums
    I’m sorry to inform you that installing the Windows 8 is not possible without making changes in the default partition created in the computer while the pre-installed OS (Operating System) was installed, I suggest you to create a Recovery discs in your computer and then make changes so that you can revert back anytime if you require, below is the link to download the User Guide for G500 Laptop and refer page no. 21 for the steps to create the Recovery Discs for the computer.

    Do post us back for further queries.

  • The search request was unable to connect to the Search Service

    I have upgraded from WSS 3.0 to SharePoint Foundation 2010. So far everything appears to be OK apart from my search.
    When I attempt a search I get the following:
    The search request was unable to connect to the Search Service.
    I checked the Manage Database Update Status in Central Admin and noticed the following(an upgrade is required):
    Also, I checked Manage Services on Server and noticed that the only search related service is 'SharePoint Foundation Help Search'.
    If I go into Manage Service Applications and click new there is no option to add a search service.
    Finally I tried PSConfig:

    Hi,
    SharePoint Foundation the search service should be installed by default.  It's not the same as with 2010 Standard or Enterprise where you can create a "Service Application" for it.

  • I had all my iTunes music backed up onto a hard drive; but the hard drive was stolen along with all the files I backed up onto it. However, the songs I had in iTunes still show up (I just can't play them.) Would it let me get them back?

    I had all my iTunes music backed up onto a hard drive; but the hard drive was stolen along with all the files I backed up onto it. However, the songs I had in iTunes still show up (I just can't play them.) If I were to use iCloud, would it still take those songs and let me listen to them (and maybe re-download them?) Or am I out of luck?

    Open iTunes, go to the iTunes Store, and then go to Purchased on the right hand side under Music Quick Links.
    You can re-download all the songs, apps, or books you have previously purchased.
    I'm not sure if this is a requirement, but just in case, make sure you download the latest version of iTunes (v10.3) too.

    Hi
    Thanks this has helped me solve the problem.
    I used the Outlook Anywhere connectivity tester you suggested. Selected Outlook autodiscover.
    It told me that it could not resolve things on any of the 4 tests.
    I saw that using the last test "Attempting to contact the Autodiscover service using the DNS SRV redirect method", was the only one likely to work in my case.
    I had already changed 3 entries in dns to point at my DDNS address but this had not worked, from the errors I could see that it was just the certificate name not matching so I changed the DNS entries for Autodiscover, autoconfig and _autodiscover._tcp
    to be webmail.domain.com which is a CNAME to my ddns address for the broadband router, which in turn forwards ports 80 and 443 to the exchange server for owa and activesync access. I got an error message saying that I had an illegal entry in my SRV record
    as a CNAME is not allowed, but it saved the change anyway.
    I reran the test and it worked.I can now make new outlook clients attach teo exchange.
    Thank you, after 8 hours yesterday of trying to reolve this I suddnely got it to work on one laptop but the other still would not and had lost track of what I could have changed so had no idea what actually made it work.
    Thank you for your suggestion.

    Unfortunately I lost my life and am trying to rebuild.  Isn't the technical era great.
    Backup, backup, backup
    As a minimum, use 3-2-1 (or even more)
    3 copies of your data (original copy counts as 1)
    2 different backup utilities/storage formats (protects from bugs in the software)
    1 copy off-site (protects against theft, fire, and natural disaster)
    More backup copies are even better.
    Backup disks are cheap compared to the lost of personal data that does not exist anywhere else.
