If I was you, I would actually make that partition 100GB.

And by the way, as of now, my Windows folder takes 29,5GB of my hdd space :D. I have Windows Vista Ultimate 64bit.

Thank you! Do you think any more would be called for or would that be overkill? I ordered the regular home edition of Windows 7 64bit.

I guess it depends. Windows can sprawl a bit on your HDD (especially after all those updates and stuff). Also, today's games take much space as well. But it really depends on how many games and other contents you plan to have on your Windows partition.

If only POE and Windows 7, then I think 50GB is somewhat fine in my opinion.

However, to be honest, I am not sure how large Windows 7 can get :D

Thanks so much to everyone who offered advice. I'm thinking maybe 150GB; its less than half of my available space. It might be overkill but I read that Windows can grow as large as 50-60GB and I love to take screenshots. Moreover, I may want to play other games in the future. Hopefully I won't regret my choice either way :-).
