Spanned Volume with Basic Disk

[Brian Ryans]

How do I go about configuring my 3 200GB HD's WITHOUT
configuring them as dynamic so that there will be 1 5GB
partition C: and 1 spanned partition of 595 GB?

Also, how do I establish a disk as dynamic during setup of
XP Pro? Email the responses to (e-mail address removed)

Can't be done with basic disks.

Don't think you can do it during setup, but you can convert from basic to
dynamic after setup. Go into disk administration (right click My Computer,
select Manage), then right click on the disk and select "Convert To Dynamic
Disk"
