Uninstalling Windows 7 from dual boot?
« on: October 03, 2009, 02:11:42 AM »
Guys, I need your help. I have two partitions, one contains windows vista while the other is windows 7. Now I want to remove windows 7 without removing my files in the same partition. Is that possible? I am planning to install windows xp on that partition btw.

Why not 1st backup your files to another media ( DVD's CD's external hard drive etc)
2 wipe that partition
3 install XP
4 restore your saved information.
