Wow! Great tip to extend battery usage, especially when you plug it in a lot, so you wouldn't have to take it off each time you're plugging it.
Thanks a lot for the info man!
I too dunno simple scripting. *tehee* it would be really great though.

you r welcomed



yeah, i manage to create a start-up script, but after think back, i thought that a shortcut to that application will be more appropriate......since sometimes you will require the lappy to charge battery (so automating process all the time to disable charging will cause another hassle when you want to charge)....the shortcut to the application should be somewhere around

C:\Program Files\Dell\QuickSet\battery.exe

Thanks for sharing tips with us. I never knew it until you speak it out.

Anyway, this is my first time using dell laptop so ya hahaha

Vostro line seems to have lower quality screen, especially viewing angle. What's the screen resolution for 17.3" (1600x900)? Anyone has i7 model? Does the notebook get hot?

great man, then i could test some those mid-games. just worried about the temp only..

What settings did you put? Does it gets choppy at some point (if high/med)

We should put up a member list of Dell Vostro 3700 owners...

BTW is the window 7 original? Would it be a lose for me if i were to ask my friend to give me "all 8 window 7 type" into my laptop? -,- He can do it lawl.

most of the game i use auto setting... so all games run mostly at high quality, one thing that been lower down is resolution, you cant have 1600x900 resolution at high quality/med...



of course the windows 7 is original (home basic 32 bit) check under your battery slot and you will see the sticker with serial there... a good practice is if you going to do some major changers/ in this case change windows, its better if you "clone" your system first.... if somethin goes wrong you can always revert to original state

guys all ur vostro 3700 only have 1 partition rite? how to create 2 partition?

u can download EASUS ..can google for it..freeware

n i think windows has built in partition tool too

Right Click Computer > Manage > Disk Management > Right Click C: > Shrink Volume....

Can also use the Sofware (EASUS) that kucing mentioned

Yup, the method given is the proper way to do it.
Partitioning isn't so hard, just google for a guide and follow the steps thoroughly and you'll do fine.
Which is how I found out how to partition/combine a hard drive.

guys anyone know which product of cooler master notebook cooler is suitable for vostro 3700?

Hey guys,

wondering if this lappy is fully or partially made by aluminium? Any owner(s) care to share? Which area is covered by aluminium to be exact?

Considering vostro 3400 vs acer 4740G. If Vostro is made by aluminium then i dont mind spending extra for better quality (compared to ABS plastics)

Thanks.

Wooho..juz got mine..will be unvirgining it tonite..stay tuned

I have to wait until 19 only can get it
