    Heey

    I have a LG Express LW70 laptop that came with Windows XP Home Edition. I needed to intall Windows XP Professional Edition for my usage. I have two partitions C: and D: each of 30GB (separated using Partition Magiv 8.0).

    While setting the new Windows, I FORMATTED the C: drive.
    Since then, I've lost the Instant On feature in the laptop. I went to a laptop specialist and the said there was like a "hidden-drive" that I formatted along the way. I alwo read in a review about this laptop that the Instant On works from the HD on a 200MB Linux Drive.

    I want the InstantOn back :D
    Any help?????????????

    Thanks

    At least 204MB of the hard drive has to be left unpartitioned in order for Instant On to install properly.
