Make sure you burn a set of recovery dvds (or cds depending on which your

you can boot to a recovery partition to reinstall the OS, etc. if something
gets screwed up badly. Most of them use a Windows 98 boot to access the
partition and you can't accesses NTFS from a Windows 98 bootable disk.

Great suggestion, but oh my! Then does that mean I will not be able to use the reformat feature that comes installed (WinXP) if I do this?
