Does anyone know how big a partition you are supposed to reserve for the 7 operating system? I believe one should reserve 40G harddrive for vista, I'm hoping 7 is substantially smaller. |
Sorry but no. Win7 is still built off of Vista so it will still require a big amount of hard drive space. At least 16GB just for the install and bare minimal programs installed.
