Diavonex,

where's the DELL kiosk located??

Suntec City Mall; where all the new computer shops are.

Near the escalator leading to the old Harvy Norman.

Hi, can anyone write a short review on 640m? Planning to get this model but seems that the graphic card cannot be upgraded? Light gaming possible on intel GMA 950 ? Like CS/WC ?

Pls advise. Thanks

You buy from SLS and get them to install it for you. Make sure they agree before you buy.

Hi Dia.

Using the trial version of Acronis, it wouldnt expire?
after i created the Rescue CD & my image, i can continue to use them?
no expiry or anything? Pls advise. Thanks

 

[Diavonex]

You'll not be able to make any more Images after 15 days.

You can use the Rescue CD for recovery of the above Images; there's no expiry date for the Rescue CD.

Hi, that means i make a image of my HDD now. Then, 15 days later i can only use the image i made. What if i uninstall & re-sintall the trial version again? can works again? or it actually regconised my machine?

 

[Diavonex]

If you format your hard disk, you can reinstall again.
