HappyDays Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 Does the installer run right in XP? I was told that I can just mount the image and install it but I wanted to be sure. Also I have a bigger problem. When I try to partition my drive (which only lets me alocate 6.5 gig becasue of low space) using Partition Magic I get a 1527 error. So what is the next easiest way to partition my HD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pulgafree Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 heck yea, now anyone know of another way to partition.Thanks. 586294005[/snapback] install vista from the boot. Then u will be able to manage partitions before installing. (Didn't tried but should work.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
