The program can only process dynamic disks containing solid simple volumes (without

extension).

Converting GPT to Basic MBR

The program allows you to convert a basic or a dynamic GPT disk containing simple volumes into a basic MBR disk while

keeping its contents intact.

In order to convert a basic or a dynamic GPT disk into a basic MBR disk you should take the following steps:

Launcher

1. Select a basic or a dynamic GPT disk containing simple volumes on the Disk Map.

2. Call the Convert to Basic MBR Hard Disk dialog selecting in the Main Menu: Hard Disk > Convert to Basic MBR

Hard Disk…

3. Set the required number of primary partitions if necessary. According to the DOS partitioning scheme a hard

disk can have up to four Primary partitions. If there is an Extended partition on the disk, only three primary

partitions are allowed. That is why if a GPT disk contains several volumes the program enables to choose the

number of primary partitions. The rest of them if any will automatically be converted to logical disks within the

Extended partition.
