| | How to Use GParted? Can I use GParted to create a 200MB partitioned to the LEFT of my windows partition so that I can use the Windows backup program on a dual boot configeration (without destroying my dual boot MBR configuration)? Windows7 is on a seperate physical hard drive and Vista is on another physical hard drive. The reason I can't use the Windows 7 backup program is because there is NO 200MB partition at the beginning of the Windows 7 Disc. |

| | Are you sure that's the reason you can't use Windows System Image program . Seems extremely peculiar to me. Plenty of people don't get the 100 mb partition. Looking at your screenie - I would think it insists on backing up both the Vista partition and the 7 partition. Why not make the 7 partition " system" and see if that does it? |

| | How do you know it is because you don't have the 100mb partition? More to the point, why are you using Windows backup - there are plenty of others. If you want to find out - sure you can create a 100mb at the start of the drive and make it "system". Not rocket science. It does mean you will have to move the entire contents of the 7 partition 100mb across to the right - partition program will do it for you. Seems a bit drastic - at least there is only about 20gb on there. |
