If it is not created and you want to create the partition yourself, make sure that your hard drive is empty. That is, your hard drive is not yet partitioned by the FDISK program. If any partition exists, you must use the FDISK program to delete all partitions before you can use the 0VMAKFIL utility. The 0VMAKFIL.EXE utility program allows you to create the suspend-to-disk partition in your hard drive, which is required for the Suspend-to-Disk function of your notebook. You can locate the file under the \Utility directory on the CD-ROM. To utilize the program, follow this command syntax: 0VMAKFIL -Pnn where nn specifies the size (in MB) of the partition. You can have the size larger than your current system memory size for future upgrade of your memory. If you do not specify the parameter, the default size will be your system RAM plus 8MB. The extra 8MB is for the overhead of the program and data held in video memory. You can clear the contents of the partition using the 0VMAKFIL -C command. The command is useful only when you are backing up the data in the hard drive. 6-4 Software Drivers and Utilities

CAUTION:
Check with your Compaq authorized dear or reseller to find
out if the suspend-to-disk partition is already created.
If it is not created
and you want to create the partition yourself, make sure that your hard
drive is empty.
That is, your hard drive is not yet partitioned by the
FDISK program.
If any partition exists, you must use the FDISK
program to delete all partitions before you can use the 0VMAKFIL utility.
The 0VMAKFIL.EXE utility program allows you to create the suspend-to-disk
partition in your hard drive,
which is required for the Suspend-to-Disk function of
your notebook.
You can locate the file under the
\Utility
directory on the CD-ROM.
To utilize the
program, follow this command syntax:
0VMAKFIL -P
nn
where
nn
specifies the size (in MB) of the partition.
You can have the size larger than your current system memory size for future
upgrade of your memory.
If you do not specify the parameter, the default size
will be your system RAM plus 8MB.

program and data held in video memory.
You can clear the contents of the partition using the
0VMAKFIL -C
command.
The command is useful only when you are backing up the data in the hard drive.
