  • how do you restore the memory back to the c hard drive??

  • where can i download windows xp 32bit for free??

  • @DarrenMalla - If you get Error loading Operating System after XP restarts :

    Using your Windows 7 installation disc, boot to the command prompt at startup.

    Type in these comands below, and press enter after each one.

    bootrec /FixMbr,

    bootrec /FixBoot,

    bootrec /RebuildBcd.

    Exit the command prompt and restart the computer.

    At this point, Windows 7 should boot up the same way before trying to install XP.

  • you need at least 12.2GB to run windows 7 which is cool i know this because i made a 12GB partition and installed windows 7 on it so you don't need that much space to run windows 7 but you need at least 1GB of ddr or RAM to run windows 7 or 512mb.

  • How did You Get Combat Arms Working on Win 7

    Please help...

    ,Dimos

    I am using Vista Home Premium 32bit.

  • This works 100% Just follow the guide carefully, any questions PM me instead of comments cause i rarely check the comments. Take care and have a good day

  • hey danwithabeer your retarded, you can install any os from that stage onwards. He prolly just had a windows 7 disk

  • that was stupid, you didn't install xp or vista on a new partition, you simple used a windows 7 disk again...lol.which any one can do. sigh, what a waste of 8 mins.

  • Comment removed

  • hmm.. you guys installed xp as your second os.. not good. The best route for you guys would be to backup everything important, and then completely format your hardrive, and fresh install XP as your first OS. Then windows 7. I don't even recommend Xp anymore tho.. Just use Windows 7. That is the BEST OPTION. if you guys dont feel like doing that, then you have to edit your Boot.ini h t t p : / / support . microsoft . c o m / k b / 289022

  • Try to press backspace when you turn on your pc and see the BIOS (keep spamming the button) if you have a MSI motherboard you'll see a choice to boot between hard disks with the OS's on it (sorry for the bad English), I don't know if this is MSI only tho...

  • I have a problem: first i have installed Windows 7 home premium, then i saw that i cant play some older games on it then i installed Windows xp sp2 on other partition, now i cant chose wich OS to run, i dont get boot screen at start it just loads windows xp. Earlier i had windows xp and Linux ubuntu and i could chose from boot screen wich OS to run (win xp or linux ubuntu). Help please i cant run windows 7 anymore but i see it on C drive.

  • @najboljiiii It's always better to have windows xp on the C drive, thats where most old drivers install. So your saying you can only run windows XP? I think your boot file got ruined.. I suggest that you backup all your important files on a new partition and then delete every other partition except windows XP and change it to C, it will avoid future problems, and then just simply make a new partition and reinstall your OS. It's a pain but it's the best way, xp should be on c.

  • @FeRoCiiOuS I have repaired windows 7 with DVD but now i cant boot windows xp :P and my partition D has disappered i had on it 200 GB games installations i cant get it back now. I went to Disk Managment and i can see that 200 GB partition without a name but i can't change it name i cant do anything.

  • Sup guys im back. I'll answer all questions if needed

  • @FeRoCiiOuS Man i knew all that, DO you know how to dual boot XP if you currently running on 7? thats what im trying to do Thanks!

  • @PaperB0y91 No, you need to install the older os first. You can try to install xp on a 2nd partition but it might make your current windows 7 not work.

  • @FeRoCiiOuS Help pls!!!! what if mine turns yellow after doing the new simple volume thing???

  • Comment removed

  • I have recently been using  Windows 7 for over a four week period now and it's remarkable. If you want it, you can get a hold of it from Windows7FreeDLXcom (replace X with . ) cost-free.

  • Kudos for the effort!

  • This sux, your need to have xp on first if you will do it as youre saying? Moron??

  • Comment removed

  • nevermind it does

  • does the blue rotation circle everytime u point at the disk manangement dialog box means its actually shrinking the volume?

    because i can't honestly tell otherwise since there's no GUI indicating how much this is progressing its really irritating reply back thx

  • I did this and everything worked, partitioned my hard drive and installed xp on it, but I could never get it to boot on windows 7 again, or access my files and folders saved in windows 7.

  • if i have a hard drive with things inside it and i partion it WILL I LOSE THE THINGS INDSIDE MY HARD DRIVE THANKS

  • you won't lose anything on it, itll just cut off if u can say, the part of the hardrive that isnt being used aka free space. then that space is made into a partition

  • what is the music?

  • and the link for what is you put anytihning in the link

  • Will this work for a Norton Ghost 8.0 boot image?

  • Nice one, was wonderin after the installation would you still have all your documents and program files or do u have to reinstall them, thnx.

  • you will, thell be on the other partshion if you dual boot with win 7 it hides the drive but you can still find it and run stuff from there.

  • Hello, FeRoCiiOus, Im a member on PSPiso. My username is gamepro127 and I enjoy the community. Recently, I seen your guide to dual-boot windows 7, ubuntu and leopard. Right now I am using Windows 7 Final and would like to install leopard on my pc. But I have one problem, I dont know if my hardware is support. Heres my specs:

    AMD athlon X2 Dual-Core @ 2.0ghz

    ATI radeon 3100

    3GB RAM

    I have 4 partions, and can easily use a 20Gb one for leopard.

    Thanks!

  • anyone know the song?

    thanks :)

  • Theres no 3rd party apps for vista... i did a google search of the partition problem and it seems that 64 bit vista have big compatibilty issuses........

    Only thing that will work is to fully reinstall a new os. Delete vista with all your files. =/ Well if you organize stuff into whats important and what you can get later on you might only need to back up 20 gigs . idk man =(

  • vista 64 bit or do u reccomend me using a 3rd party app instead?

  • Oh hey safiz i replied back to you on pspiso. Thats really weird... your on vista right?

  • yea i tried putting in 45000 in the 3rd box still cant shrink =( btw im saifz in pspiso

  • Hi endof. Are you SURE 100 Percent sure you changed it? at 2:20 it lets you change it to whatever you like. Since you have so much Hdd type this in "45000" im sure it will work, post a comment if it did or didnt ill get back to u.

  • Hi inutel69. Of course you can....you can always dual boot no matter what specs...but you wont get a smooth windows vista with that. With 1 gig of ram vista wont be Smooth, and i dont recomend vista at all.. try windows 7 It will run on your pc. If you want windows 7 leave a comment ill post a video how to install it without wasting a DVD =D only if you guys want windows 7 tho.

  • hello i am having the same problem as rick but i have 145gb of free space out of my 285gb hdd and i still cant shrink to 20,000. plz help i tried cleaning up and uninstalling even more files to save more space
