First is there a way to partition a drive with out having to format it?
Next if there is, Can i install a 2nd instance of XP on that partition?
My wants. I play battlefield 2 which is a good game released too early for its own good. It is very sensitive and tends to eat its self alive if there are other programs running. So i want to create a clean partition with just windows, drivers, and BF2. But i i don't want to have to format my entire drive. I have two 60 gig maxtor drives both have about 25 gigs free. If i have to i can format the other drive, but would that drive allow me to boot from it?
well any help would be greatly appreciated
thanks
