This only works if you have the unallocated space to partition with,if the
C: drive is all formatted,then no free space exist.You would then need to
install a 3rd party disk mgmt software to break up the disk,or if you have
older windows software OS,as in ME 98 or 95,use FDISK to create seperate
partitions,then install xp.
