oh .. yes, my reference to the Win 7 Insall DVD was indeed the DELL Win 7 DVD
----------
OK back to the new install, I am really trying to do this right and do it once...
I need to ask ( as this is the step I massed up last time) ..
So I going to have one virgin drive installed, and one shiney Dell Win 7 install DVD. I am gonig to boot from that DVD, My questions are this:
QUESTION 1) On this tutorial, Clean Install Windows 7, after step 6, when I expect to see the Disk 0 Unallocated Spece partition, the instrcutions "If the hard drive or partition that you have selected is unallocted, then you can just click on the Next button instead and go to step 9 since it is already empty. "
So, to be clear, there is
- no need to use Drive options to Format ?
- no need to hit New to Create partitiion ??
Correct?
QUESTION 2) I do intend to split the large 1 TB drive, (ie to create Data parttion) but it is so much easier (for me) to do that later, using Disk Management, ie shirnk the C and create a D drive. I assume this is acceptable - correct???
