What is the error you're getting?

Are you trying to create a primary or extended(logical partition)

Error?

Where are you trying to make them?

Well you should definitely post the error if you're still viewing this thread or need help. Always try to include as many details as you can or we can't help you...it could be numerous problems.

Sounds to me like your making them all primary?
There is a limit of 3 primary and one extended partition.
The extended one can be made into many additional ones.
Try post your error and give us a screener of your partitions from within diskmanagement if possible.
