here is what happened with my dual boot install
I had built a new desktop computer about 5 months ago, and loaded XP on it. It has a single hard drive, partitioned into 3 partitions. The third partition, E:, is about 100Gb and I use it for temporary files. I.E. if I want to collect some files into a single folder and burn that to CD, I do that on E:.
Today I installed W7 RC1, and installed it on the third partition. Here is what I discovered:
1. When I boot into W7, the drive letters get shuffled- the third partition becomes C:, the first 2 partitions become D: and E:.
2. I did what I thought was a clean install, but the files and folders that were already on that partition are still there.
