    Considering a V20

    I like the look of the V20.
    I was wondering what the standard partitioning is of a system shipped with Windows 7. I would be wanting to run a dual booting system with Linux and would prefer not to have to reinstall Windows to achieve it if possible.

    Re: Considering a V20

    Hello Luke,

    Our Value systems are configured with a single partition that contains Windows 7, as these systems are pre-built and ready to ship we would be unable to create partitions prior to shipping.

    This wouldn't be a problem if ordering from our 3XS Custom range... However you can use 3rd party software such as Partition Magic to create the partition without having to format windows.

    Best Regards

    Re: Considering a V20

    Thanks for the advice, system is up and running as a dual boot happily.
    I do have a question. I have hooked up my old monitor as a second monitor for watching TV. I currently have it attached to the onboard graphics with my 'main' screen on the discrete card.
    Would this be considered the optimum setup or am I as well running both monitors off the card?
