Back in the DOS era, fdisk was used to create the 'partitions' in which the 'primary partition' would usually be the boot (active) partition as the 'C' drive and the rest of the space could be allocated to an 'extended partition'. And then that 'extended partition' would be further 'partitioned' into logical volumes (drive labels d,e,f etc.)
I was using Windows FLP a.k.a Fundamental For Legacy PC at that time. Trust me, Microsoft at that time was care for less bloatware rather than Windows 10 and 11
Agreed, modern Windows are too bloated unlike older versions of Windows, however third parties are to blame for including their own bloatware on even older versions of Windows, which consists of trialware and etc. that can take up space on the hard drive and make the computer slow, which was prevalent during the rest of the 2000s and early 2010s. Of course, nowadays third party bloatware has mostly been gone now, aside from a few. It’s also why I sometimes do fresh installs of Windows on some machines because of this. There are also debloated versions of modern Windows such as 10 and 11 made by skilled modders, but for personal reasons I will not address nor use them.
@@johnnychaWell Windows 10 and 11 has LTSC which is no Microsoft Store apps bloat. But the BS was that was still heavy as heck and same as regular Windows. Even Windows Server 2022 and 2025 don't do this sh**
This is still on my radar and I will do that sometime in the future. I have already installed Windows Server 2003 on here before, but due to the reformatting and reconfiguring of my Intel Compaq, I will have to reinstall it again. Expect that video to come out soon, whenever I can get the chance to make and upload it.

Interesting to know. I have used fdisk before.

Good video!
Will You Install Windows Server 2003 On The Compaq?
This is still on my radar and I will do that sometime in the future. I have already installed Windows Server 2003 on here before, but due to the reformatting and reconfiguring of my Intel Compaq, I will have to reinstall it again.

What About Windows XP Starter?
Maybe, but that is out of the radar for me, at least for the time being.
If I have time, maybe I will.
