Very great tips...
I use partitions... Since this new computer I just built only has one IDE port.. And I'm too poor to pick up a SATA 500GB HD.
I have a hard drive just based for pictures, movies, and music....
Apparently, that hard drive is going down the drain, so I have to recover the stuff from there.
I've found that instead of using a internal HD, put the internal in this:

Unless you want to boot off the internal like you listed.
What you stated are very good tips, might use em myself... Maybe...
I don't physically separate, as I'm just too poor, and lack of ports.
I used D for my programs ONLY... No music, and whatnot, made that mistake quite a long time ago.
You can just delete the C partition, and reload XP onto the C Partition, than the D partition, but you will need to re-install programs, as the registries are changed..
I have a question for Mr. IT Guy
I have a C/D Drive, 120GB that's crashed, I put it in a external enclosure..
When I try to access my desktop files, it says "Access Denied"... What gives?
I think it might just be because since I had a password on my C drive, I guess I should just plug it in via internal IDE?
Thanks in advance!
