I reconfigured my PC for FSX to 2 hard drives.The old one is 7200 rpm the new one is 10000 rpm.I want to install s/w for optimal performance and need assistance:1. on which HD to put XP? (slow/fast?)2. on which HD to put the FSX?3. on which HD (separate partition?) to put the FS2004? (i want to keep both for now)4. on which HD (separate partition?) to install s/w running with FS (like AS6 etc.)?5. on which HD (separate partition?) to install s/w running in the background (messenger etc.)?I also plan to define constant VM of 3G (have 2G RAM) in the non-FSX hard drive.will be grateful for any tips regarding my configuration abovethank you

1: Slow2: Fast3: Fast4: Slow5: SlowIf you're running Messenger in the background, you are wasting resources. Switch it off before starting either FS program.Allcott

thanks a lot :-)
