[QUOTE="Zeptogram, post: 966515, member: 113551"] 1- You could partition your drive into two parts and then format half of it, and then you could certainly use half for PC, and half for OSX. You can do this using Disk Utility, a preinstalled app in OSX. This is what it looks like: [url=http://emberapp.com/users/james_mal/images/screen-shot-2009-12-23-at-7-59-32-am][img]http://emberapp.com/james_mal/images/screen-shot-2009-12-23-at-7-59-32-am/sizes/m.png[/img][/url] And selecting your partition size and partitioning with Disk Utility will erase everything I do believe. You can do this with terminal I think, and [URL="http://forums.macosxhints.com/archive/index.php/t-83462.html"]here[/URL] is how, but I do not know if a complete reformat is necessary then. Question 2! I've not had much experience with external monitors, but have you just tried a simple image change with system prefs? Does it automatically reset to the default space image everytime?
