[QUOTE="PeterAstle, post: 151768, member: 13527"] I want to install Win 8 Pro on my SSD over a Win 7 installation and [B]avoid creating the System Reserved Partition[/B]. Can you clarify step 8? Do I: 1. Delete the partition containing Win7 first 2. Format this partition so it's not unallocated before continuing? In the very last step, for someone whose not very savvy, what drivers am I likely to need to update? (When I installed Win 7 about 4 years ago I didn't update any drivers and the system seemed to work ok.) Is there any advice on the forum about managing Win 8 on a small SSD? (Too small to hold all my personal files as well as Windows.) Many thanks [/QUOTE]
