Tip #10. Mirror Drive Issue Issue: Windows 2000 running with Software Mirrored system drive will not allow you to reconfigure a drive after you break the mirror. For example, you cannot delete the system volume. After breaking the mirror of the system disk the Disk Management cannot delete the volume of the system disk. For example, add mirror for the system disk with an allocated hard disk drive (for example: Disk 0 contains Windows 2000 is mirror with Disk 1 that is unallocated). Next, break the mirror then try to delete the volume of Disk 1, but the Disk Management cannot delete the volume of Disk 1. Instead the disk Management only allows you to format Disk 1. Furthermore, the Disk Management will not allow you to mirror the system disk (Disk 0) with any other hard disk. Workaround: In order for the Mirror feature to work again and to delete the system volume of Disk 1. Please do the following: 1. Break Mirror (from Windows 2000). (Use FDISK.EXE to remove the partition on Disk 1) 2. Boot the system in MS-DOS mode. 3. At the command prompt type "Fdisk /MBR".
