After having successfully partitioned hard drives on two Toshiba machines, I
cannot do so on a Dell. The error message "insufficient disk space" is
obviously not the real problem on a brand new computer with only the
operating system and craplets. Is it true that currently Vista only supports
4 partitions and if Dell has set them up for Recovery, Media Direct and EISA,
that I cannot partition further as certain Web postings suggest? I can get
as far as shrinking the c drive, but cannot assign a letter or quick format
as Microsoft instructions specifiy. Is there a work around?
