Hello, I have a scuffed (once sleek shiny) little 2 year old Gateway SX2802 Quadcore I bought at Wal*Mart, and among the real irritations on buying a new computer was that I did not get a CD with my OS, (and it failed to create a restore disk) ADD that games I used to love and many I would've enjoyed loving won't run as they "weren't conceived of with Windows 7 in mind," (--Bethesda) 'rather it was for XP. So I want to partition off about a 100-150G of my 700G drive and put XP on the new partition. I don't even know if its doable, so I ask; is it doable? and if yes, is it mindblowingly simple?
