you can use win95 or win98 start-up disk to start the computer and run fdisk to partition the drive. First create primary partition(c:), and then use the rest disk sapce to create logic partition, then create (d:,e:....) partition in logic partition. You can install operation system on primary partition, and run your programs in logic partition(d:,e:....).<br />
<br />
BTW,'partition magic' is a useful software has ability to change the szie of one partition and make muti-startup disk.

You would be best off investing in a piece of software such as Partition Magic, which will do this without you having to reinstall Windows. Of course, it goes without saying that before ANY kind of major fiddling with hard disks like this you need to back up any important documents on the machine!

Need help with Win 2000 partition

Windows 2000 is an operating system for use on both client and server computers. It is the successor to Windows NT 4.0, and is the last version of Microsoft Windows to display the "Windows NT" designation. Four editions of Windows 2000 were released (Professional, Server, Advanced Server, and Datacenter Server) that shared a core set of features, including many system utilities such as the Microsoft Management Console. All versions of the operating system support NTFS 3.0, Encrypting File System, as well as basic and dynamic disk storage. The Windows 2000 Server family includes support for Active Directory services, Distributed File System and fault-redundant storage volumes.
