How can i do that?????

Please Help Me ......im want to used the second hard for my FSX Game and photo and music and leave the primary hard drive fresh.

My Specs

AMD 64x2 5600
Seagate 250Gb ( I want to add Maxtor 250GB )
Nvidia 8600GT
500w PSu

The drive is not formatted or partitioned. I use XP and use DISK Management to setup the partition(s) and then format the drive.
I right click MyComputer, then MANAGE. You should see your drive under DiskManagement.
This is where you can partition it into as many different partitions you want. Each partition will get it's own drive letter , D: E: F:, etc. Normally you just want to set up 1 partition using the whole space of the drive. I hope you can figure it from here?

It looks like you can get there the same way. Here is a link that shows the long way through control panel, either way is fine. I looks similar to XP. Vista has the ability to resize partitions on the fly as well, but you aren't concerned with that right now.
