OKay I was using partition magic, I guess I did something wrong, I just went to delete a partion and than install a OS (windows) on it, but now I go to the windows setup, and I go to the "unpartitioned space" and when I go to install it says
"To install windows on the partition you selected, setup must write some startup files o the following disk: (disk size)
However, this disk does not cotain a windows-compatible partition.
To conitnue installing windows return to the partition selection screend a create a windows-capatible partition on the desk above, if there is no free space on teh disk, delete n existing partition then create a new one.
To return to the partition selection screen, pres ENTER"
Well created a partion thru the windows setup and it just says C: partition1 [unknown] and when I click on it it just gives me the same message that I just wrote
I'm pretty stumped, I have all my music on my D: partition, and I don't want to loose that, I ave two unpartitioned spaces that give me that message.
IS there a simple way to just change this unpartitioned space to a "windows compadable" partition ?
