    Question Installing Win XP on a backup partition?

    Hi all,

    I want to try out WinXP Pro w/SP1 on my Win98SE system. I used Partition Magic 8.0 to make a backup partition for Win98SE system, which is 8GB and the OS partition is 10GB. Hard Drive capacity is 20GB.

    Since I cannot install WinXP on Win98SE partition, I decided to install it on the backup(D:\). Is this Ok? I was also thinking about dividing the backup partition into 3GB and 6GB and install WinXP on that 6GB. Any suggestions? Is that enough disk space for WinXP to work properly, including is swapfile?

    Thanks.
