Building new FS Machine- A few questions
As stated above, Im building a new machine for FS.
* I have only 1 drive currently that's going in it (SATA 250GB).
1) Shouldnt I partition the drive and have XP on one and FS on the other, and
2) How big should I make the OS drive?
3) In the future I plan to buy another SATA drive and have FS on it if that's better peformance wise. Thoughts?
* Do I correctly understand that my 2.1v RAM should be just fine in this MB that has the capability of running 1.8v ? (It runs DDR2 1066 or DDR2 800 depending on CPU and a reviewer said his 2.1 RAM ran at 1.87 per the BIOS).
* Any special things I need to do before installing FS9 and then FSX after XP is running stable?
Thanks,
