Hey sujay actually that is true. According to what i read on lenovo and other forums, OKR is sensitive to disk management. Even if you resize your drive OKR won't work properly.

May be. But that's weird.

At least in my vaio, it works perfectly even after partitioning.

Its very easy, simply set Other OS in BIOS than do factory defaults, now insert Windows 7 64 Bit Disk and install as usual, Choose Custom (Advanced) install to install it and also get the option to alter your partitions but do note that in this process you will loose all the programs and stock OS. Its important to take the backup of Drivers which are on the 25GB partition.

Look under SPD tab. It'll show Slot #1 & Slot #2. If your system has two modules, it will show info of both.

Download this USB 3.0 driver - *download.lenovo.com/consumer/mobiles/usb121w7.exe

Thanks a lot!! I'll try it out today..


The Status and Priority of my Do Gear Offer Ticket is marked as [ Private ] with the whole priority box being colored red while the others are green. Is this the same as for others?

When you start using a new OS its little confusing but eventually you become master of it. Sure Windows 8 has some drawbacks but almost all of them are fixed in Windows 8.1 which is coming on 18 Oct 2013 for general public availability.
I can assure you as currently I am using it, that you may like Windows 8.1 and it even has Start Button!

Prices of all the devices have increased since 1/09/2013 but if possible check the prices at Digitus Electronics Nehru Place, I got at 69500 from there on 31/08. They have got the best pricing on this model and may be on others as well!
