None. This is a safeguard to help ensure you don't accidentally convert a drive you didn't intend to. To get the Volume Label, simply type DIR G: at the command prompt. The first line of the results will contain the Volume Label.

A). My HD has the partitions C, D, E, F, G. C has NTFS file system and.
all others have FAT23.
My C drive has shrunk a lot and D, E, F, can sustain more data for some
time more. The G drive has still 18GB free. I want to move about 10 GB
from G to ultimately C.
So my problem is to first convert DEFG to NTFS by executing the
following at the command prompt C:\>CONVERT [drive letter]: /FS:NTFS.
Since I do not know DOS, I typed
C:\>CONVERT G: /FS:NTFS
and I got ---the type of the file system is FAT32.Enter current volume
label for drive G:
W+E shows me that my G drive is DISK1_VOL5(G:). My point is what will be
the full command to be typed at C prompt that will not finally give me
“Enter current volume label for drive G:”
Kindly guide me in detail what is the command so that I can convert the
G drive to NTFS .
b). my aim is to pass-on 10 GB from G to F and then from F to E and then
from D to C. There is a free program available at
< http://www.snapfiles.com/reviews/Ranish_Partition_Manager/ranish.html>
this program uses a command line interface and is intended for advanced
users that are comfortable with DOS screens. Could any one help me to
use this program please?
It is not necessary to use this very program, if any other free program
is there kindly suggest.
Thanks for the help in advance.
