If it does not turn on at first, do not fret. Mine did not but it turned out I did not plug in the button that turns on the computer (DOH!)
My reasoning for HDD partitioning was more for safety and security. The performance gain/loss is marginal, if that. I have not noticed a difference and I know if Windows crashes for any instance, all my files are saved and I can get Windows back to the state I had with Norton Ghost. Just a thought.
