Qbat Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 I have had Windows Vista and XP with dual boot on my computer for a long time. I used EasyBCD to manage the dual boot so I had the selection at startup. They are both on their own partition of course. Then I created a new third partition of about 10GB where I installed gOS. Now I have a "gOS startup meny". I can choose gOS or something like Windows OS'es. If I choose gOS , gOS starts, and if I choose Windows OS'es the meny where I can choose between XP and Vista pops up, works great. I'm now thinking about installing Windows 7 to try it out. gOS isn't needed anymore so I am thinking about installing Windows 7 on the gOS partition. How will this work? Thought I'd ask you people before I try... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowl Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 You need a bigger partition than 10gb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qbat Posted January 13, 2009 Author Share Posted January 13, 2009 I have now shrinked some of my other partitions and now I got a 17GB partition for my Windows 7. I'll try installing it tonight. Then I'll have Windows XP, Vista and 7 ready to use on my laptop :p fun fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
