And that small partition was your instant recovery that dell installs on most of their systems. It can come in real handy at times to restore your system using a couple of key stokes to new in about 15 mins using a clone of the original.
I also finally turned of UAC, giving permissions to every file I needed to alter was getting annoying.

Yeah, however, it totally denies you any possibility to partition your drive as you see fit. What if I want to have one small system partition and one storage area so I can conveniently reinstall JUST the system? Or what if I wish to install Linux alongside my Windows? Any form of pre-decided partitioning, rights or limitations is utter bollox in my mind. Gimme my disc clean and gimme a DvD to install the OS with. Then I'm happy. Or let me run an OEM install where I can partition my drive as I see fit.
