I have a new computer on the way and have been told it can be partitioned with XP with software on it, utilising free space on the disk My copy of XP for Dummies does not mention partitioning. How do I do it, please? John Dowding

Partitioning is usually done at a low level DOS when the hard drive is installed. Since you are getting a new system, I would not recommend doing this as it would erase all your new stuff. There is a program that will allow you do to partitioning from within Windows called Partition Magic. You can find information about it here. http://www.powerquest.com/partitionmagic/ You should also be able to find the program at most major computer stores or order it on-line from the web site. Art
