Thanks. I just did that using FDisk, but, I have another problem coming up: 
What are the refresh rates for this monitor? I haven't been able to actually 
find this info on the Whingdoze thingy inside the properties in control 
panel. Thanks.
                      yours
                          Kiran

The way of love was thus.
He was born one winter morn
With hands delicious,
And it was well with us.

Love came our quiet way,
Lit pride in us, and died in us,
All in a winter's day,
There is no more to say.
            -Rupert Brooke, 1913
