You'd have to check on yours, or simply try it, to see what options you get. I can imagine recovery discs restoring a system to how it was when you bought it. In my case, on an Asus system, the initial setup was a 5 gig recovery partition, half the drive as the OS, remainder as a spare partition. But I appear to have an ordinary Vista install disc, so I'd expect to be asked how I wanted to set up the drive. You can try pre-partitioning using Linux, and hoping that a Windows install may just use already set-up partitions. -- (This computer runs FC7, my others run FC4, FC5 & FC6, in case that's important to the thread.)
