Complete boot is not so fast, even to the logon screen; then logon script and all the enterprise crapware starting...
From: Gary G. Little on 7 Jul 2008 11:27 Silly thought, but it would seem that as cheap as HDDs are, you could have purchased a 750 GB internal drive, cloned your current system drive to it, and no longer be fenced in. And done all of that for what it has cost to tell us why you "can't". -- The personal opinion of Gary G.

It's not a 2.5Gig partition, it's a 10Gig partition (which is also quite small I admit). 2.5Gig was what was remaining (without hyberfile.sys). - Alan Carre

New hard drive? Both? Please do tell! I know such a thing existed for DOS but I didn't know there was an NT/NTFS version. I'd be glad to double the size of my system partition (I have more than enough space on the other partition). Thanks! I'm googling it now. - Alan Carre

New hard drive? Both? Correction: I knew there was a DOS version *that can repartition an NTFS Hard Drive* but you still needed to boot into DOS to run it. I knew that because that's exactly how these partitions were created in the first place. I didn't do it myself though... someone at the shop happened to have a copy on a bootable CD-ROM (my other HD had failed, which used to be the system drive - now just a backup/"mirror" drive). - Alan Carre |
