Partition windows xp. I can't remember if I asked this the other day or not <sorry, lots to remember>. My new pc arrived. I've not tried it yet since I'm borrowing the new monitor at the moment so I can see some stuff on this old computer since the old monitor is shot. <well, very very dark> If you had a 120 gig hard drive on a new pc, how would YOU partition it. I don't have partition magic. But the new one has xp home editon on it. I don't even know how many partitions I should make. I was thinking, one for mp3 music files, as that takes up a lot. One for windows? One for photo editing and photo's perhaps? A Misc one? I don't know. I'm welcoming suggestions and instructions on how this is done. I hear it is easy to do, I'm just new at it. How would you divide up a 120 gig pc? Re-Na Hanson / Arkansas USA --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
