hoho, i make my own partitioning. used Acronis Disk Director. really easy to do as long as you know english and common computer terminology.

i have resized my recovery partition to 8GB, my C to 120GB and the rest to create new partition E (cant use d, it is already being used by dvd). all without destroying any existing data.

Hi guys,

I plan to get a new router because my router just died.

My XPS1640 network card is Intel® WiFi Link 5100 (802.11a/g/n) Half Mini-card

so i should get wireless G or wireless N?
Can someone explain to me the difference and which would be better?

Thanks a million

Perhaps this should be posted in the Networking section?

Well, to put it simple, if you just want to use it for internet, G is enough...
If you are using it for transfering file through the wireless, N would be preferable

hey guys got my laptop this morning, was too excited to do an unboxing vid or anything lol, im loving it so far. played mass effect 2 on it, so awesome.

oh yeah btw my colour is merlot red and the colour is represented right on the dell website in case anyone is worried.

unboxing vid leh ?

Where is your unboxing video ... ?

hahahaha i had to leave for work at the time and unboxed it immediately, so i couldnt make the unboxing video.

sorry guys xD

I think it's better to post pictures here instead of making an unboxing video

what is the price you paid for it?

Hey, i want to ask what type of sound driver you guys are using? cause i dont know why my speaker got some "bIzz "sound, whenever i play youtube or online video. Sometimes the sound will appear. but normal music "Mp3". The sound was okay. Is it a problem?

RM4699.

Never mind then, just remember to share with us your new laptop pictures ...

congratz. same as me. haha. another merlot red xps 16.

4699? what kind of upgrades did you add? i5-540M?

its core i5 520M and 9 cell battery, but i added the 3 year warranty upgrade.

Just noticed that SXPS 13 is not shown anymore when narrowing down the search options to only Studio XPS laptops. Ending that particular line or refresh?

yeah noticed it too. probably a refresh?

Ohh i'm getting impatient from waiting for the GPU refresh.
