With my setup, I had assumed, since I wasn't going to use Vista, that I could delete these partitions and install from scratch. Several months after doing so, I got notice of an important, security related, BIOS update. I had to re-install Vista in order to do the update, the update required runing in Vista for the GUI. -- Bob McGowan
