You folks have helped me out a lot and now I have another question for you. I have installed Win8 on my desktop and everything is working as it should. I have two physical drives on my desktop one of which I use mainly for backups. On that drive I created a new volume and installed Win 8 on it. I’m happy with it. On my notebook I also installed it on a Virtual Box. But I like the way it is setup on my desktop better that the virtual box. Here’s what I’m wondering: On my laptop I have only one physical drive, but it has more space than I need. The drive has a total capacity of 576 GIG and I use only 60 GIG which leave me about 516 GIG of unused space. Can I do the same as I did on my desktop even though it has only one drive? That is can I shrink that drive to created a new volume on it so as to install Win 8? My desktop and my notebook both have Win 7 64 bit. Thanks for all the help you have given me. –Frank.
