I have Windows XP and Windows 98SE running on a partitioned SSD and I formatted it (FAT32 of course) using Windows 98SE as I've always done! I'm not sure why you would need to format using Windows 7. If I can find them, can I use them to format an SSD as per the recommendation that Windows 7 be used to format SSDs for XP?Īre there other ways to align the SSD for use with XP, specifically XP64?įinally, what programs are recommended to TRIM a Kingston SSD? I was thinking I could use XP's task scheduler to have the program automatically launch or even execute the TRIM weekly, unless the program can do so automatically so long as it's running in the background. Provided I remembered to pack those when I moved cross-country. I may, but I am not entirely sure, have Windows 7 repair discs on me. I don't think I have easy access to a machine with Windows 7 on it. I plan to have put the OS (XP64) on it, as well as one or two programs that would benefit from loading from the SSD provided I can find a way to keep said programs from constantly writing to the disk. I recently bought a Kingston 120GB SSDnow v300 for my pending overhaul of my desktop computer. I've been reading through the thread, but the ensuing conversation from it has made it a little difficult to determine the best course of action. Hey guys, apologies for the necro, but I thought it would be better to ask here and get some definitive confirmation before I go about doing this.
