Nice video, I currently run winxp pro and I'm thinking of making a partition for windows7 as a dual boot system. Have you come across any issues using gparted as I don't want to risk getting myself into a mess with this.

always be prepared for it to go bad mate,just in case,and do you have empty space on your drive?or do you want to resize your partion,then make a new one???

Yes, I have a back up drive and have the entire pc backed up. I have plenty of spare space and thought of allocating 50GB, that should be enough easily just to play with window7, thanks again

i have a question ..

when i create a partiion (lets say 20 GB) and i install some programs on it (incl windows)

what does happens when i delete my C: Harddrive?

can i use the new partition with (windows is installed on it!), and do i got the memory of the C: Drive back to the new partition?

-so i just have 500 GB on my C:

-i create a new drive (20 gb)

-i delete my C: drive

and then i get my memory back right?!
