Hey guys, I'm just waiting on my 3000+ CPU to be delivered and then I can get on with installing Windows on my new PC.
I have two Maxtor harddrives.
One is 40GB and the other is 80GB.
I'm gonna put each one on it's own channel cos I am using an external optical USB drive.
I want the 40GB harddrive to be used for movies, music and other multimedia and my 80GB drive for all my programs, games, ect.
Which drive should I install Windows on to? Does it matter?
And more importantly. Should I install Windows on a partition?
Does it really make PC's run faster?????
AIf so, I will do it, but I have a question...
When I first boot up my new PC and put my Windows XP Pro disk in my drive and go through the installation process, how, when I get to the stage where I must select what drive Windows is installed on, do I put Windows on to a partition of it's own?
Also, how big a partition should I use???
Thanks guys.
