Using a Partitioned Hard Drive The hard drive in your computer may be partitioned into up to four logical drives. Compaq partitions preinstalled hard drives with capacities greater than 2 gigabytes (GB) because Microsoft Windows operating systems using 16-bit file allocation tables do not recognize hard drive capacities greater than 2 GB. The first partition contains the Computer Setup and Diagnostics software accessed by pressing F10 at startup. The second two partitions each have a capacity of 2 GB.
