24...that is the max unless you are using some kind of software that allows you to name the partitions intead of assigning them letters (26 minus the 2 reserved letters a & b, plus one less for each other device like CD-ROMS)

That is in DOS/Win9x.....XP (and other NT kernel Win) can be different and other operating systems are different also.
