Where, what, how ? : : My TR shipped with a working suspend partition, I just copied the : numbers into fdisk when I created one on my wife's TR I didn't : actually know there was a sony program to create it ... : : > i've had the exact same suspend/resume problems with both the w2k : > and standard bios... : : I upgraded the bios out of habit. My triple cap battery arrived today, : too :) Pete- Dell has a utility (somewhere) that will create a suspend-to-disk partition as the first partition (it must be before the 8.4GB limit stuff). The phdisk.exe that comes with the TR (somewhere) and other machines with the Phoenix BIOSputs it at the end of the harddrive, but this is worthless on your 12GB HDD. (I have a copy of phdisk that I grabbed from IBM or Dell support ... snork :). I could ask about the BIOS utility.
