Hello, I have upgraded my (second hand) laptop hard drive drive from 160gb to 1tb.
I then loaded vista as that was the coa on the machine. BUT the old hard drive had win 7 on it. I want to dual boot vista /windows7
If I use clonezilla to put the win7 os onto the new hard drive , will it read vista, and partition automaticly ?
Or do I need to partiton vista (200 gb) off first? Then load win7 (as a clone this will be 160 gb) and expand the partition to suit.
I haven't tried to clone before.
All files are backed up, also are there any rookie traps?
