Want to make Win 7 System Partition DualBoot
I have two hard drives and have each of them partitioned.
I have Vista on C: and did a custom install of Win 7 on the first partition of my second hard drive, which is F.
I wanted to create a backup image of Win 7 on the first hard drive's other partition but kept being told there was no room, because it was imaging C and F.
I found this from technet.microsoft.com's library

I made the 200 mg partition at the end of my second partition on my second hard drive with Windows 7 on the first partition. However, I can't mark the 200 mg partition as active, evidently because I already have one active partion.
Any advice as to how I can achieve my goal without messing everything up? I thought Win 7 automatically made this partition, but it didn't. I have programs installed on Win 7 so hate to re-install it, if there is some way to do so and get the 200 mg partition. Would a repair installation fix it?
