If you run msinfo32, then look under Components, Storage, & Disks it
should show you the Partition Starting Offset for each logical volume.
Divide that by 4096 and check you get an integer result.


Good tip, will do, thanks.


or do it from the command line:

Do:

diskpart

Then get a list of disks:

list disk

Select the one you are interested in:

select disk n

Now get a list of partitions on the selected disk:

list partition

Now select the partition of interest:

select partition n

finally:

detail partition

That will show among other things the "offset in bytes"
