Partition or Volume - Create New

thanks :)
is this right?

ah ok. thank you so very much, appreciate it :)

So, now I came back. Shrinking the volume didn't help at all because my computer got stuck all the time when my windows was on slave disk. Now I know that S-ATA hard drives don't have the jumpers and thats why I didn't find them but they can be changed from bios (not in my case) or they are in wrong positions on motherboard (there is exact place for the channel 0 master and slave etc.). You must think I'm an idiot. Well at least I feel like one. So I changed the cables on the motherboard and got it fixed but now my windows hard drive might be corrupted because it makes the unexpected i/o error before it boots and everything on the windows hard drive is slow (like when I go to a folder with pictures, it might take almost a minute to create the icons). And about an hour ago when I restarted the computer I got the I/O error and did a startup repair with windows repair disk and in the diagnostics there was something like this: "Root cause (or error) corrupted windows volume (i don't remember the error code) fixed" and immitietly then it started.

Thanks Shawn for these great advices. I'll just buy a new hard drive before some testing and thats all.

Hello there,
I've actually shrink ed my volume C (with windows 7 on it) and then I've created a new partition with yours tutorial. The problem is that the OS doesn't starts anymore. It appears only a black screen with the underscore on it ): What should I do);
thank you!

I only got 3 dvd's of mine back up files I think that are..would it work?

OK, I put my windows 7 installation disk in the cd/dvd drive, and how I say to him not to install win7 but just to do the Startup Repair?
