You should first check the Dell web site to see if a newer BIOS is available for your motherboard.

Why do you need/want a 1Tb partition for Windows?

I understand TTL does not operate on K200 and K20, but what should I expect to happen if I set it to Auto.
Generally, a flash having one or more 'Auto' settings has a built-in light sensor to control the flash duration. This in turn controls the exposure.

Nice to see somebody has their finger on the pulse of changing technology .

This topic is over 4 years old, and Sony bought a company for its technology (Konica Minolta), rather than re-invent the wheel.

The *istDS is actually a very capable DSLR and has the added advantage of having a Pentaprism viewfinder.
It has TTL flash control too.

I know but it's good to know if he does get it to work how to solve the problem even further.
The OP is keeping very quiet about it. Doesn't seem to have been back since presenting the problem.

Having to remove the plate from whatever it's attached to rather negates the 'quick' part of its name.

I have standardised my kit around Manfrotto mono/tripods and have a QR plate fitted to every camera and lens that I use most often.

Did you at any time insert one or more batteries incorrectly?

If no, use rechargeables as John mentions. Sanyo Eneloop batteries (or similar) are best as they have a very low self discharge rate.

While we're on the subject of gargantuan lenses, in that PF thread there is a link to a Carl Zeiss 1700mm f/4. You have to check this thing out, it weighs 256kg and looks like something out of Star Wars.
I'll wait for the f2.8 version.
