    Hello All,

    Any kind soul having the same notebook model as mine, TravelMate 8215WLMi, running on Windows XP Pro SP2, 160GB harddisk size.

    I need the actual detailed size of the default partitions, i.e. "PQSERVICE - hidden", "C: Drive - FAT32" and "D: Drive - FAT32".

    Please kindly let me know the size of each partition, so that I can rebuild my system back to factory default.

    Many Thanks.

    Hello All,

    ue to time contrainst, I went down to Acer Service Center to reload the factory default o/s and partitions, and got charged for $50+. And this time, before doing anything after reloaded, I copied down all the important informations of my system, and backup the "PQSERVICE" hidden partition twice, to be safe.

    I was told by the Acer technician to try use "Macrium Reflect" to backup the "PQSERVICE" hidden partition.

    There's 2 versions of "Macrium Reflect", Free and Full (paid) Edition. I tried the Free Edition, and excellence!

    I would like to share with you guys with this great backup freeware "Macrium Reflect". You may download it at:

    Hope this help.
