Windows 7 on a new partition
Hi.
I have been attempting to install Windows 7 on my Dell Latitude E6400. I created a new partition (I am dual booting with XP, or well, trying to.) using the Ubuntu live CD. I restarted my computer and booted from CD drive w/Windows 7 installation disk in it. The installation gets up, I choose the new partition, format it, and then click next. It gets to the 'expanding windows files' point, and then just ceases to do anything. My machine has a 160 GB HDD and the partition I created for 7 is 120 GBs, so that is more than enough space. I cannot install over XP(I have to use it for work) so Windows 7 must be run on a different partition. Please help.
