Dell Laptop User Thread

I'm from Malaysia, so according to Dell MY, this kind of spec costs RM5737.00 (S$2494.00)

And I think it won't play C&C3 cuz that's some high end game. BUT since I've not yet even own this system I guess I can't say anything bout that...

And yeah that's what the result has been, that showing Vista is indeed slower than XP in every other way.

So yeah that's why anyone has configured this kind of specs (or almost the same), I would really appreciate your experience with it, esp in gaming.

Thanks.

EDIT: Yeap just read dennis009's post saying C&C3 is playable so I guess it is then

according to some previous threads, C & C 3 is playable on Dell's integrated 950 graphics, although i have not tried, but i tink its possible also....

Just got mine also and have the same sentiment as you.
Any chance of going back to XP if Vista K.O my system?

Use Acronis 10 (Trial Version) to backup before you install Vista.

1. Download Acronis 10 Trial Version

http://www.acronis.com/homecomputing/download/trueimage/

2. Install Acronis 10

3. Create Rescue CD and keep in a safe place (very important)

4. Backup your complete drive to an eternal drive; make 2 images to be safe

5. You can now install Vista

If you want to revert back to Windows XP, you can use the Rescue disk to restore your Windows XP from the external drive.

PM me your email and I'll send you screen shots on how to do Backup and Restore with Acronis 10.
