Guys Let play nice
LOL I always play nice until someone insults me for no reason. Maybe that is what he was thinking but it certainly wasn't what was typed. That's the trouble with type it can be taken differently then intended.
You don't need to worry about what gets marked active and what doesn't. I don't even see how that got into the conversation. You WANT the 100mb partition to be there. It contains the Windows Recovery Environment and will be invaluable to you if you have system problems later on.
Stop getting caught up in all the extraneous stuff that has been discussed in this thread. Partitions really have nothing to do with who has access to what. That is dealt with by user ID within Windows.
Boot on the DVD, remove the existing partitions, install in the unallocated space (bearing in mind this will erase anything on the drive). Set up the users with the abilities you want them to have. VERY simple.
Not inside the 100mb partition , though.
I don't have the 100mb partition - still have WinRe of course.
Where is yours?
