Ok, I know this will sound like a really dumb question to you expert geeks, but how else do I learn except by admitting my ignorance and relying on you all to educate me.
I've put together my first complete build and am ready to begin installation of the OS (Windows 7 Pro). I have a 60Gb SSD and a 1Tb HDD and I would like the OS to go on the SSD. How do I designate the drives for this?
Also, it was suggested to me, that, since I have some peripherals and needed programs that may have compatibility issues with the new Windows 7, I should consider partitioning so that I can also install Windows XP for these. I have no idea how to do this either.
Thanks to all for the great help, advice, and encouragement you provide to us newbies!
