Hello,
I've have a new laptop with Vista 32 installed. I'm going to put W7 32 on it as soon as I can get the "free after all the red tape" DVD from my vendor. Are there any (known) disadvantages to having both OS's installed with dual boot capability? Is there a "preferred" way of installing W7 in a dual boot configuration with Vista? Does Vista (Ultimate) contain the proper tools to shrink the (320GB) HDD properly to add a partition for W7 or do I need to get a another HD manager? Are there any threads any where that list apps that will not work in W7 but do work in Vista? TIA for any info provided.
