I need to reformat and partition my drive and install xp I have never done
this before so any help will be appreciated all the articles say different
things so im a little confused a symantec rep destroyed my drive performing
remote assistance due to a problem with the 3.1 microsoft installer
(norton360 wouldnt install)
first off this is how it was originally partitioned from dell and I dont
know if it should be done the same way or how to since I only know how to
format the partition im going to install windows on this is what it
originally said
-artition 1 [FAT] 55mb
cartition 2 [NTFS] 233601 mb
fartition 3[FAT] 4754mb
I dont know what the [fat] is I thought windows should be in a partition
that was ntfs and seperate from all my personal files should I partition or
not and just use the whole drive and install windows on that and if I do
partition if I create a small partition of say 10gb for windows and format it
to ntfs it starts to install windows so how do I format the rest of the drive
for my data and then how would I get my document onto that drive thank you in
advance for any help
