    Hope someone can help me with this. Bought a Lenovo N100. I tried to partition it using another WinXP cd. But after partition, I am unable to install the system from the recovery to the C drive. Now stuck with a 70Gb drive.

    Anyone know how I can partition it without using 3rd party software?

    Maybe you can use the restore DVD's you can make on installation, to um.. restore it.

    Haha..... Think i give up already. Have tried the whole day to partition the harddisk. But the moment I remove the preinstall C drive, WITHOUT touching the hidden drive, I am uable to use the recovery system to install a the system into my C drive which I create.

    Think i will move on to formating the whole hd and then install everything thing by myself and not rely on the recovery sys.

    Wish me luck guys. :)
