    Here's my plan:

    Computer needs new OS and I'm going to install 64-bit Win 7.
    I want to make it fast and install it on a 32 GB SSD drive.

    Is this ok, should be no problems here?

    Now, I only want to use the SSD for Windows. All my files will stay on the old hard drive.

    I haven't done a setup like this before, should I expect any problems? Thanks!

    You should have zero issues though you might want to install your A/V and firewall on the SSD to increase boot speed, plenty of room for those. I just love my Intel X25V 40GB!:)

    BTW, nice machine.
