NO, PARTITION OF iNDIA IS VERY VERY USELESS
You just partition the Hard drive not the RAM.
Most operating systems uses the boot partition to boot the computer. In some operating systems, both the system partition and the boot partition are used to boot up the system.
On MS platforms, the system partition is used to hold the boot files. The boot partition holds all the windows operating system files. Leave it to Microsuck to mis-lable the partition hiearchy. The system partition holds what is loaded and executed first after the computer runs through its preliminary BIOS boot sequence. It tells the computer where to start loading the operating system from; the boot partition. The boot partition is where all the program files (thousands of them) needed by the operating system are stored. If the system partition is deleted; the computer will not find the operating system. If the boot partition is deleted, again; the computer will not find the operating system.
There is no set amount of time. It can vary tremendously, depending on the type of partition, the size of the partition, and the speed of the computer.
A computer hard disk cam be split into partitions, this can be done for many reasons, including the need for two different operating systems on one computer and to reduce disk space wastage. A secondary partition would be any such partition on the disk, which is not the first partition, you would normally expect to boot from the primary partition.
This is a partition on your hard drive.
A windows computer (XP and after) will be able to store data on a partition if the partition is formatted with the NTFS file system, but will not use that partition as the default one unless you install an operating system and boot off of that partition. To format the partition for use like I described for the first answer, click the start button on the bottom left corner of the screen, then right click on "My Computer" or "Computer" and select "manage." Click the "Storage" tab on the left side of the window that opens, and select "Disk Management." Locate the correct partition right click it, select "format" and follow the wizard that opens up.
my computer--->manage->computer management ---->select drive drive and right click delete partition
Yes. LiveCDs can access the hard drive on a computer, though you will need to know the partition identification to mount that partition.
Of course.
First you need to download a partition manager and then install it on your computer. You need to choose the ones that support you delete partition with XP. Do you think so?
