Xtreme $niper Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 I'd like to know this also. 586295599[/snapback] In display settings go to advanced. There you can change the DPI, which I BELIEVE changes the size of the icons. Read what it says and try it out. I never tried it because it requires a reboot and I dont find the icons too annoying at my max res of 1280x1024. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hotdog666al Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 I also met this problem!ai first i only build one subarea ,and windows appeared the message the same as yours! then i build another subarea,all is OK NOW! 586295308[/snapback] Subarea? You mean... Partition? I'm installing onto my Backup Drive (Where my backups are kept) and I cannot create a new partition, nor do I want to format it. (I guess I could, and make some new backups...) But what can I do to get past that error during install? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yodat Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 I'm trying to install Vista to VMWare 5 but no matter i do, everytime i get the same error. I tried everything and none of them worked. I'm using 7GB partition partitioned with XP Setup (also tried with my old Partiton Magic floppies) with 256MB RAM allocated - tried with both WinXP and Longhorn Experimental profiles in VMWare. I see people got installed on their VMWare's. So what am i doing wrong ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
