"TFGHT is Compressed".......
Thanks.
I am new here.
My DELL Latitude D430 was interrupted while Compressing the Drive.
Upon restart, before it loads Windows, it says "TFGHT is compressed"
.
What do I do? And how do I load in SAFE MODE?

thukunjuguna,
Try the steps below to resolve this issue.
First try to decompress the drive
1. Insert your installation DVD.
2.. Choose "Repair your computer"
3. Select your OS > Click "LOAD DRIVERS".
4. In the new box > Press Yes.
5. Navigate to your operating system drive > right click > Properties > Advanced tab.
6. Uncheck the "Compress this drive" option.
The above didn't work
Insert installation DVD.
Choose "Install now" > "Custom install".
Mark an existing partition > Install Windows.
Windows will then install another version of itself, and store all your other data in C:\Windows.old\, so that you can restore them at a later time.
If you have very important files, you could also detach the HDD from your PC, and insert it to another PC and extract your files first. Then do as above. You can then remove any partitions you like and structure the system the way you want it.
