| | Hi, Since you want to try Windows 8, but not risk a problem with your current Windows 7 installation, you might also consider installing and running Windows 8 in a virtual machine. Use one of these tutorials to show you how to do that: VMware Player - Install Windows 8 Consumer Preview - Windows 8 Forums VirtualBox - Install Windows 8 Consumer Preview - Windows 8 Forums Regards, Golden |

| | I would not delete or overwrite your Windows 7 as Win8 may do if you run it from within Windows 7. What I would instead do is try virtualizing it and if that is not successful, shrink C partition to install it as a Dual Boot as I have done and not returned to Windows 7 since. You'll need to download the ISO from boobah's link above, burn it to DVD using WIndows Image Burner, then boot it to install to the space you shrank from C. |
