I would like to Parition my new 40 gig Maxtor drive. I plan on having a parition of about 3 gigs for Windows to run more smoothly on and the other partition of around 35 gigs for programs and games.

Is this a good way to go? And is there anything I should do along the way of the setup so it turns out smoothly? A little guide would be nice :) BTW I am installing WinXP if that makes a diffence.
