Need? Well, it was just suggested to me that it would be a good idea.
I'm sure it's all one partition now, but as I said, I've not checked it
out yet since I'm using that monitor on this old pc for the time being.
I'll check it out soon though.
I was just thinking it would be a lot better way in case I just needed
to replace certain parts of the partitions ever, or, if I was to defrag
or scan disk. A 120 gig drive surely would take forever to do.
Just wondering and wanting to do the best thing, that's all.

Since XP is installed, would that mean the whole disk is set up as 1
partition (probably NTFS)? If it is, do you need to change that for some
reason? Partitioning makes the system act like it has extra drives (when
it doesn't). This can have advantages for portioning out information to
those drives. If on the other hand you can do it on one partition, is
there a need to go through this?

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
