i trying install linux in computer has windows 7. first step shrinking disk size windows did not allow reduction. followed number of steps disable "unmovable" files
- i disabled page file
- i disabled hibernation
- i disabled system protection
after nothing seemed have changed checked disk fragmentation , 11% fragmented. have since run @ least 4 defrags , have defragged free space using defraggler.
as of disk looks this
right now, windows refuses shrink partition amount (i imagine files @ end of disk troublesome ones).
coming linux background unsure else needs done in order shrink partition.
