I recently reinstalled Windows 2000 server on a test server in my lab. I dropped the partition and created a new partition on disk 0 to install to. The previous install was on a dynamic volume. After the new install the c: drive is a basic partitionHealthy (System) volume. Which I expected, However, Disk Management also shows a Missing Dynamic Failed (System) volume. My question is how do i delete the old missing volume. When I try to Delete Volume I get an error "Cannot Delete the system volume on this disk."

I have sence remover the origional disk, reset the cmoss, installed a new drive, and installed a fresh win2000 server load. now i have a healthy(system) and 2 Missing Failed(system) volumes.
Where is this information being retained??? I tried following Technet article 236086 and could not make head or tail out of its instructions and it is obvious i dont know how to use diskprobe and the article doesnt seem to address additional Missing Dynamic volumes that physically dont exist.
