If you have the OS disc, it'll partition it and just ask you for a general size..
I usually go for 25-30GB for the OS. Jam it back in, in the dark. |

After the OS install is complete, right click My Computer:
Choose Properties Choose the "Advanced" tab Under "Performance" click "Settings" Click the "Advanced" tab, click the "Change" button under the "Virtual Memory" heading Now, a new window will pop up. You can choose to have the page file on C:\ or anywhere else. Your choice. Under size, put 3000 for both min and max size. Click "OK" in all three windows to exit out of them. Done. How ya doing, buddy? |

Anytime.
This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |

Seriously, after updates and such, a 30GB partition is FINE for XP, and FINE for Vista. Also, unless the hdd has really really really really really really long seek times, having that big of a partition wont make that much of a difference, seeing as it's for the OS and ONLY the OS. If you're storing other programs, along with the OS, then you're still going to be okay. It all really matters on the setup. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? WALK WITH THE DREAMERS,

Well I was taught to always have the OS on a separate partition.
Then once I got more drives, I just made whole drives for certain things. So now I have one partition for OS, the other for Music, another for Games, another drive for Programs, another smaller drive for program backups (install files), and one separate drive for anime. I was speaking idiomatically. WALK WITH THE DREAMERS,
