Windows XP Home Edition was just installed on my computer's hard drive 0 which is the C:\ drive. It is 28.5GB total size, 3GB used and 25.5GB free. No space is unallocated.
I would like to partition this in two, with C:\ drive being 9GB and containing Windows XP Home plus other installed applications, and the (hopefully) new D:\ drive being 19.5GB in size and intended to hold all of the data files.
Q1. Will doing this partitioning erase Window XP and the applications from the C:\ drive?
Q2. How can I do this partitioning. Help talks about right-clicking on the "Unallocated portion of the Basic Drive," but this C:\ drive (Basic Drive) does not have any unallocated space, although 25.5GB of the space is "free space."
Thank you, Xavier
