"MediaDirect DIY" with the Reinstall disk, possible?

Question:
"MediaDirect DIY" with the Reinstall disk, possible?
Hi there all,
If I didn't buy the Media Direct option for E1405, is it still possible to install MediaDirect if I somehow have the reinstallation disc, doing the harddisk partitioning myself and be able to run MediaDirect with the notebook turned off?
:cool:

Doesn't E1405 come with MediaDirect as 'standard equipment'??

If you have the MediaDirect Reinstallation disk, then yes, you can use it to create your own MediaDirect partition. However, I don't know if it will work from Power OFF. I guess it depends on your hardware/BIOS configuration. As a minimum, you should be able to run the MediaDirect partition from the Microsoft boot.ini 'menu' during start.
a post to give you some idea of what you're in for...
Cheers
