Stan,
OK, what was your last choice for an XP partition?
Is it 20GB or greater?
Best,
Duncan

When I first started partitioning my drives with separate WinXP and data
sections I started with 15 gigs and then 20 when that didn't seem large
enough. I did however run into a program that wouldn't work because it
complained that there wasn't enough space on drive C. My latest build is a
game machine with Vista upgrade and I just made it all one partition to
save time.

What is a reasonable partition size for WinXP?
I ask this because I have watched both W2K and WinXP getting close to
outgrowing the 4GB partitions they live on (here) ATM.
Yes, there may be much junk that I have not yet found/killed on either
that might mitigate this question.
I do keep all %temp%, temp, and tmp directories at 'empty' as best I
can. I do use eraser to clear unused space also. Still, I find the OS
(and my stupidity) is expanding. I did expect this; just not this fast.
Thank you,
Duncan
