Dell M1210 laptop disk - Win7 layout
In looking at out Dell M1210 Win7 disk management,
I've noticed that there are 3 partitions setup... 55MB - OEM ?? Media Direct ?? 69GB - NTFS and used for Drive C: 3 GB - Primary Partition I thought I recall reading that Win7 uses it's own partition for holding the booting manager software, vs just putting things in the \root\ sub-dir. SO - what's the 3GB and guesses on the 55MB ? -- / _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ No Good Deed - Goes Unpunished |

It kind of looks more like an XP partition layout to me. |
