what vista does is cut out a part of unused space from our selected drive, format it and voila a new partition, the process is incredibly simple and short and no harm to ur old partition either

tried by me

realy? no need use other program to do the partiton?

yeap

for more info and help please go to help and support in vista and key in partition

can tell what is the size for the partition u made?

i made a 20gb from a 40gb partition so meaning i have 3 partitons

if not wrong u can control the size of the partiton urself

In windows vista?I haven't try b4.Just noe partition magic,or win xp/vista cd only.

yerp....there is no way for me to take it out or i will lost a notebook ....it will fall down from my table ...

hi pipedream..can u give the website to me? for partitioning vista one? thanks..hehe..cant seem to find it..all seems to be error messages and how to solve them...

why will it fall? cos it has lost one leg? lol...nowadays the laptop why the battery if removed will have a hole in ur laptop one...make all the dust go in nia..not like last time the laptops..got cover one..

Oh yeah..i just bought the ZALMAN cooling pad for my DELL lappie like u suggested steven..hehe..but too bad the holes are situated below the lappie...where the battery is..so doesnt really have any use..but i can push the laptop down so that it blows to the ram and hard disc part..hehe..overall it really cools down my lappie..hehe 10/10 for ZALMAN COOLING PAD!!

bcome not so stable d after take off the battery ...so duwan to take the risk...i m kindda careless and i can make anything spoil easily

Zalman ...? how much u bought it ? Rm 150 ?

the fans are cool enuf lar ...and if u r inside aircon room , wow , great too .... btw , do u manage to know the temp drop for how many c ?

haha...i see i see..then u should get that ZALMAN too..it has the rubber grip so that ur notebook doesnt fall...i have taken off the battery cos i use A/C power most of the time..and it doesnt fall from the ZALMAN..its very stable..hehe

Yeap..I got it for RM155..is it considered cheap?

hehe..most of the time ill be in an aircon room..temperature drop ah..i dunno how to check oh.. ive been trying to find a software to check the temperature on my lappie. i tried NHC and it sort of got jammed..not compatible with VISTA maybe?

Anyone can recommend any software to check the temperature for laptops which is compatible with VISTA? thanks..hehe

but than battery still considered usable... just that not that efficient only.. can replace also ar?

The price dropped by another Rm100..But still not sure whther this week deal which is free delivery is worth or not..

Does anyone encounters problem with the Vista Email where you can't Empty the 'Deleted Items' folder????

I have vista home premium on my 6400 wit 1 gb ram,at idle it seems to take up 600+mb ram already.So i'm wondering if are there any side effects if i were to increase my virtual memory settings?(i heard that it'll give u more memory?) Anyone tried tinkering wit those settings before?

Btw,does anyone know what harddisk does dell provide for 6400? eg.Seagate,WD,Toshiba etc..
