Thanks Brink! Works great!
Now I can play my Steam games in XP and still have Win 7 as my #1 OS.
What do I do if on step 5 of method two the XP setup sees my HD as unpartitioned and empty? I can access everything while inside Windows 7 and while using an Ubuntu LiveCD.
Hello MattCatt, and welcome to Seven Forums.
Did you do step 1 of METHOD TWO to create the partition from the Windows 7 drive for XP?
If this is a separate hard drive than the one Windows 7 is on, then you can just select it to start installing XP on it.
Hope this helps,
Shawn
I have only the one drive, and I have 3 partitions on it. I want to install it on the F: partition.
I am now trying to extend my existing XP partition, and add some memory to that partition, but when i right click the partition, the extend option is in grey, aswell as the mirror option... I do have several gigs of unallocated space, so I don't know what's wrong. Help would be great :)
Not sure what you mean by add memory to a partition.
Do you mean add space?
Disk Management will only extend into adjacent Unallocated space.
It will only also extend to the right.
Please post a screenshot of Disk Management window, like this:
