Hi to all,
I was browsing a forum about Windows XP and a topic about the best way of installing Windows XP attracted my attention. As I am curious about exploring software like you, I have to install Windows XP frequently. Here is the best way of installing Windows XP according to experts:
The first requirement is having two hard disks one of which is 80-160 GB and the other is 250-500 GB of size. Firstly, divide the 80 GB hard disk into two. Partitions should be 40 and 120 GB respectively. Install Windows XP and Service Packs into the 40 GB part and the programs and games into the 120 GB one. The 250-500GB second disk is for multimedia hobbyist to store movies, photos and music etc.
Life is meaningful with cash
I want to add something. After installing XP and Service Pack 2, download and install all available upgrades of Windows. Then install a decent virus program (I advice McAfee of Panda). As soon as you finished these steps, get a disk image into 120GB part of your first disk. So, you do not have to do same processes again for the next format.
Regards.
