Almost ever single program you install (wherever you custom install it to)
is going to write a lot of information to the Windows drive. If you install
AutoCAD to drive D, it will still install about 90 meg to drive C.

Stop fighting a war you can not win.

I would not install Windows XP on a partition smaller than 10 gig. I
habitually install into a 20 gig partition.
