Have a 300GB HDD. Gonna install a new OS soon. How do I create a, say, 150GB partition thats NTFS to backup my files?
What I am about to do is this.
Create partition
Back up my files
Install Vista to old partition after formatting it
Bring stuff from newly created partition back to the Vista-installation partition and delete new partition and re-integrate the space
I have done it before using Gparted, but last I checked, my 8800GTX doesnt support the Ubuntu LiveCD. Is there another method?
