It depends on what programs you want to load in each OS. If it's not a whole lot of programs, make two 10gig partitions (C & D) and a third for storage(E). Remember, WinME can't 'see' the NT File System (NTFS), so make sure you format everything in Fat32 if you want ME to have access to the XP partition.

2)When i finish the installation of WIn me then I isntall Xp. How can i ran WIN me from xp ?

XP will install a boot-loader that you can choose which OS to boot to (at start-up).

My plan is to install me just to play games smothly.

So i think that i will install 10gb for me and games instalation files.

D, 15 gb, for xp and program files.

and e the rest, what do you think?
