What you need to do is down load a live distro or the cd version of Gparted, boot up with it and make some space on the hard drive. If you really want m$ xp and Fedora then install xp first then install Fedora. By the way FC3 is a bit out of date why not FC 6 or F7?. Before you do any of that make a note of the hard ware manufacturers, network chips, blue tooth and web cam chips. -- Guy Fawkes, the only man to enter the house's of Parliament with honest intentions, (he was going to blow them up!)
