good partitioning program needed

[John Heim]

I think fdisk will work. But, again,  Win XP will slurp up any 
non-partitioned space on the HD. I'm not sure Win 98 will do that but if I 
were you, I'd create 1 32 Gb partition for Windows and then create another 
partition on the rest just to be safe.
