Is there anyone who has an E1705 with an intact Dell Diagnostic Partion that can make an image of it, and provide it for me to download?

I have the diag CD, I just would like to get a copy of the intact partition, to check it out and mod.

I do not believe that image covers the partition entirely does it? I tried re-installing from the util they provided online, on a friends unit and it did nothing but create the partition, not all the content. (did not copy files like ghost etc.)

there isn't really all that much to it. It's a simple diag program. The partition is only 47MB.

yeah I understand that. I think they have a diagnostic repair util that fixes the partition but does not include the utils.

The restore program is just norton ghost renamed. etc.

I was just curious to see the directory structure,.
