Mouse) Buy a cheap one at like Wal-Mart or somthing.

 

Partitions) The First Partiton should be Windows. You should Leave at least 5GB of Unformatted/Unpartitioned Space at the end. I use Partition Magic for this.

Well when you install xp, just don't use up all your hard drive space when you create a partition, leave at least 5 gigs or so, depending on how much you plan to use linux and what you will store in it. Then once you partition the windows partition, you will make the linux partitions in the installation.

had to find it so i knew exactly lol, its in a USB port cause i seem to have issues with my logitech mice in my PS/2 port. i know its odd. as far as the partition is i guess i could try partition magic, i know that FDISK didnt want to cooperate with me.

 

so ill try that
