Do I create a 'new' partition with 64GB and install win 7 on it?Did you allow the Windows install to create the 100MB partition by default? It's part of the MBR or master boot record.
Basically, that's it. What I've done in the past is to create a 64GB partition to install Windows 7 to, and leave the other partition as a "miscellaneous" one, for downloads and storage.
Yeah, it will give you plenty of room for all the software you may install. Then use the remaining space like I said.Do I create a 'new' partition with 64GB and install win 7 on it?
If your drive is only 74.5GB then don't make a 64GB partition. However Windows 7 will run on a 20GB partition. Then you can setup the remainder for data and so on.
