Gary, Why would you nuke the Dell partition? I find it very useful for diagnosing hardware issues especially when Dell reps ask: 'Did you run the Dell diagnostics on your machine and if so what's the error code?' prior to them sending out the needed hardware replacement.

Occasionally, I encounter a machine where the little Dell partition doesn't want to completely go away when you try to re-partition the HD during the windows install. That causes problems for the windows install, or other issues if the install goes through, that can't be cleared up unless I use Partition Magic to wipe the partition and then re-partition it during the windows install. Has worked every time so far. Just a thought.
