    Partition Issues- In preparation for Windows 10 from 8.1

    Well Carnage, all that sounds like fun except once I got home today I took a long look at the brick sitting in my room, gave a long hard sigh, and thought; What would Roy do?

    Partition Issues- In preparation for Windows 10 from 8.1

    Well. Mixed results to be honest. Installed Windows 10, activated. Performed a clean install, formatting and deleting old partitions in the process. Installed clean Windows 10 and booted, ran fine, had to install some Windows updates so did that and turned off my computer to go to bed. Come...

    Partition Issues- In preparation for Windows 10 from 8.1

    Hey, thanks for replying! There's nothing on the Windows 7 partition that I want to keep so that's helpful. Referring to that website's instructions, the only problem is when trying to delete or extend my drives is that it won't give me those options in Disk management. Possibly because the...
