PC - windows 7 rc out - View Post

So I've downloaded it, but as I have never done dual booting before, could somebody help me a bit.

Now, I have partitioned my HDD splitting of a 20GB section for Windows 7, which I am going to increase to 30GB. Firstly, I have now split of a spare 10GBs of my HDD, but it won't let me extend the Windows 7 volume (A), any reason why? (I have plenty of space left, there is no problem there)

Also, I have to reinstall my programmes on Windows 7? Assuming I do, that does mean to Empire Total War for me (it takes up 15GB!!!), so I will have to download firefox again, but will I be able to copy across my favourites from my Vista account?

Lastly, it says my graphics card does not support Aero, but can I assume this is just a temporary issue and can be fixed with an update?

Thanks for any help

 

Let me get the name of the partition tool I used, it was free, and will re-adjust existing volumes as long as you have free, unallocated space. I'll post it here when Im back @ home.
