Hm? Please explain. I'm installing it to my D: drive, so are you saying it will change my C: to a different letter?Jiggah said:War said:Oh yeah... I guess I could always use Daemon Tools, huh?

Fair warning, installing Win 7 through either XP or Vista will make the drive letter something other than the C drive. If you want Win 7 to be the C drive when you boot into it, I highly recommend just doing through a bootup rather than within another OS.

Uh...GParted worked for me. Are you sure YOU didn't do something wrong?

But remember, the beta runs out eventually (without a crack) and then you will be forced to re-load XP.
You MAY want to avoid this beta, because its seems to take over the MBR and Windows boot loader.

You can easily fix that by doing a startup repair from your xp/vista disc.
