Default PARTITION

If you've already installed XP, you'll have to use a 3rd party program like
BootIt Next Generation, www.bootitng.com or Partition Magic,
www.powerquest.com. If you haven't yet installed XP, boot from the XP CD.
As part of setup, you'll be given the opportunity to partition and format
your drive. XP does not have the tools to resize an existing partition, it
can only delete and create new ones.

BootIt Next Generation is about half the price of PM8, or less. Better
support, too. Bugs if any get fixed quickly.
