Hi Dear Britec.
I have long history with problems on both Win7 and Win10, so I got idea - I should try dual boot, just to see how it would work.
I have 2 HDDs of 1TB, one is in strange "format type" so I can only install Win7 on it. And other is also strange "format type", so only Win10 can be installed on it. They are both formated on that strange way.
Anyway ... I was reinstalling my new Win10 yesterday, without any involving of Win7 into it. First thing I noticed way 2 "unlocated space" stuff. I had 3 particions with 333.3 GB each, and I had two unlocated space stuff with 333.3 and 666.6 GB. I just couldn't bring them together. So I thought, ok .. I will just reinstall Win10 on 333.3 partition, and I will leave 666.6 in one partition without changing anything. After instaling windows ... I got into menu and I got two Win10 copies on one HDD. It said: "Win10" and "Win10 on Vol 6". After that. I tried to install Win7 on other 1TB HDD, with full formating of other 1TB HDD. And still, same problem, I couldn't put 2 unlocated space stuff into 1. And I still couldn't get into Win7 on menu, even if it's on seperate HDD.
After that, I did again, try to install Win10, I did format everything, unlocated space stuff did stay, still couldn't put it into one. I deleted other Win10 via MSconfig stuff. And here I am.
I would love to have dual boot PC with Win10 and 7. What's my next move? Is there any way to format my two 1TB HDD to be empty, and get them as dual boot pc? What should I do next?
Btw. your dual boot video on your YT channel is pretty cool. You should keep doing that!
Tnx, Jarrus.
