a bit
question....
pattitions can't have a password, however you can set the needed permissions to hide them (or better said: to make them unaccessible to other users). Read the following answer. It's done in the same way.

you can't. however you can set permissions on files & folders so others aren't allowed to read them. First of all, i'll supposse you have windows xp professional and that you're using ntfs partitions. In other versions of windows or with fat32 that may be done in other way or can't be done at all.
In a folder, go to tools > options > and the 2nd tab. There there is an option called "Use the simple mode of sharing files (recomemded)" or similar. You have to un-select that option. From then, you can right-click a folder/file, select properties, and go to the security tab. There you can specify the permissions you want for each person.
It's highly un-recommended to change the permissions of the root folder (ie: a whole partition).

that makes no sense. You can set the hidden attribute of them, but unsetting it is as easy as setting it, so that is quite useless.
your post is quite weird
if my reply doesn't answer your questions, could you explain what you want to do a bit more, please?
