This is what each partition is (I believe)
1. is system
2. is C (Windows 7)
3.HP recovery
4. Hp tools
As you may see, I have four partitions as most new computers have nowadays. I was reading some workarounds for this that involved deleting the partitions, but involved a rather complex process of several backups. From what I have read, all partitions are equally important (Hp tools has the Bios in it)
