Ok, I bought a new pc at work and that means I move everything down the line. I moved everything in one pc and it boots up fine. But when I go into Disk Management under Admin Tools on one of my hd's it's showing the disk as Healthy (At Risk). Anyone got a clue what this means?

Also, in the bar graph at the bottom is shows the drive as a gold color, instead of the normal blue. And it also says this on the left hand side:

Disk 1
Dynamic
152.66 GB
Online (Errors)
 
Is it a striped volume? According to MS, that error is what you get when part of a Dynamic Disk is missing. Perhaps half of a raid mirror is gone?

 
It looks like you converted it to a Dynamic Disk, which is used for Windows RAID configuration. You don't want this since it's only one disk.

You'll need to delete the partition and reformat it to use it as a regular disk.
