For some reason this won't work on my PC because when I go to https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/softwaredownload/windosw10 to create a windows 10 ISO bootable USB there is no option to create a bootable ISO image of windows 10. The only option I am allowed is to to upgrade my windows 7 to windows 10. I have a Lenovo desktop less than 2 years old. Any suggestions on what I may be doing wrong? Or is this not possible to do on my PC?
Thanks

Timster;
Thank you for your reply so quickly. The link you provided works but that page still only provides one option and that is to upgrade my window 7 OS to windows 10 OS when I run the "download tool now" button at the bottom of that page. It doesn't have the two options shown in Brian's tutorial when you run the download tool. It only allows me the single option of upgrading to windows 10.
I appreciate your support. If I can't dual boot i will just go ahead and stay with windows 7. I just thought it would be nice to be able to have both so I could get familiar with windows 10.
Thanks
Roger

I think I figured out how to create a bootable windows 10 USB. I looked under options on the page you provided and I think I will be able to create it from there. Sorry I'm a little slow at times. Two screen shots are attached of the page you sent me. I believe I'm on the right track now. If I have a problem i'll get back with you on this tread.
Thanks

    I went through all of the steps for duel booting my PC but when windows 10 installed from my USB ISO image into my new partition my computer just kept restarting and reinstalling Windows 10 repeatedly. I finally had to manually shut down and restart my PC to click on windows 7 in the startup menu to get 7 to start up again. I had to delete the new partition to get rid of Windows 10 so it would stop restarting and attempting to reinstall the program again every time I restarted my PC. My deepest apologies for wasting your time. I sincerely appreciate you guys efforts to help me.
Thanks you so much.
