    How big do I need my partition for another OS's start up disk to be? Just large enough for the OS to fit, or do I need to save all files created in that partition to that partition also?

    It depends mostly on what applications you want to run.

    I had 30 GB for games and that wasn't enough.

    So everything that OS uses needs to be on its own partition?

    It's just like a typical machine.

    Some applications won't work unless they're in C:\Program Files.
