QUOTE(europology @ Nov 8 2009, 05:06 PM) Hello guys... I've been silently following this thread for some time now, and i'm happy to say that I'm joining you guys in a week or so! First thing first, should I go for the 2-yr Dell premium care or the default 1 yr XPS premium warranty is suffice? Is XPS 16 reliable enuf to gv me a stable performance for at least 3 yrs? Money is the issue here and thus I hv to be wise on it.  Also, what else should I do once my lappie arrives? Any configs/updates/tweaks to do for optimum performance? BTW, I'm getting the i7 720-M package loaded with the new Win 7. Cant wait! eurology,when u get ur lappy,pls tell me if u got ur win7 cd or not..since i dun hv..they said that i hv to burn my own recovery disk... |

I dont think they will provide it. Most laptop manufacturers dont bundle the cd with the lappie.

IINM Dell does make a habit of bundling recovery and backup DVDs with their systems. Provided you buy it online or from a Dell Direct store. Unless of course they changed their policy in the last couple of months and I was unaware of it. This post has been edited by Loki[D.d.G]: Nov 9 2009, 12:13 AM |

warcraft 3 did not support wide screen resolution..
and windows 7 will always maintain the source aspect ratio...
Hence to solve this problem in windows 7.,
go to regedit, find the warcraft 3, register, change the resolution there such as 1280x800 or 1920x1080... then enter the game...
U will see it will be fullscreen... DO NOT cHANGE THE RESOLUTION IN THE GAME..
TQ
