i owned dell inspiron 6000 but seem the thread is not very active...
where are those inspiron 6000 fancy goes!!!

i formatted my notebook because there were some problem where the screen display nothing but system running and can hear the sound.

once formatted everything is ok, but too bad, i removed the system recovery from dell.

then function is kinda interesting where you press the key (forgotten the what is the key already) and it will automatically back to manufacture setupl.

is there any software like this? available in the market?

haha...
for me dell recovery system not really usefull laa.. they will restore it back to factory setting if not mistaken...which hv a lot of bloatware aka dell software to uninstall back

btw, the xg station required external lcd in order to use it... better buy dekstop laa like that...usd$600? around RM2100....i think can get decent desktop edy

I read from somewhere that as long as u have formatted ur computer, even without doing anything to the recovery partition, it won't work already.

Anybody care to clarify?

i owned a dell inspiron 6000 b4 ....hehe....but now change to 6400 d

huh....long time didnt keep update the pricing
so i not quite sure

the recovery system from dell is useful ?
most of the dell software not very useful .... just that RECOVERy CD

Good news to those who want to upgrade their ATI (Catalyst 7.4) latest driver. You can refer here:

Warning: Remember to follow the instruction and don't be lazy.

dun think so.. i think the recovery partition consist of a collections of dell drivers

There. Found my email about the pc restore from them

oh?we can update ccc on ati website?y?

refer to c) & e), is that mean once i partitioned my c drive into 2 (become c & d), the pc restore is void eventhough its partition is still intact?

i think so..like dmd partition

crappy thing then, i often format my comp whenever it feels laggy wor, means pc restore will not work anymore?

bah

if that's confirmed, will reclaim the pc restore space back as i partitioned my c drive into 2

hey guys, anyone knows how to mount back the "diagnostics" thingy back into the hdd? thanks

sigh.. no news bt my 6400 yet...
juz called Dell, the team leader said will inform my status...
it's completed d, juz waiting for the delivery...
she'll check whether it's loaded to the truck oredi or not...
but by d sound of it, don look tat optimistic...
since they usually load their truck early so tat they can deliver it everywhere around Malaysia...
and since it's from Penang...
hav 2 wait another day...sigh...damn fed up d...
if mine completed y can't they load it d truck 2day...
btw, which courier service they use ar?

sorry for venturing out my frustrations...dell service maybe excellent...
but I guess this is only during prob occurs...
their delivery seriously dissapoint me...told me 1 week...
now oredi like 8 days...if come 2moro worse...
if I know it take so long, might hav bought one of the other brands I had in mind...
which can take stock rightaway...

u have to be patient dude..

the estimated time is 2 weeks.. 8 days is nothing and if they already loaded to delivery truck, must be tomorrow ady

i think u need to send back to dell
in order to restore back that partition back

if 2 weeks, don la promise ppl 1 week...
if she had told me honestly in d beginning perhaps I understand...
but she keep stressing only 1 week, tat's y i ordered...
now I regret d...felt like being con...

well i got mine in less than a week

my guess is, too many people order during the pc fair so must be busy there

5 working days for mine.

Best to order on a monday, so you can get on Friday earliest, worse come to worse on following Monday.

If in KL, even faster, 4 days if not mistaken.

Patience is a virtue...hehehehehehe
