    Good, if its not much then you won't have a problem.

    Now I don't think it can merge partitions, but once you have Windows installed and all of the files copied back, just boot into the Ubuntu live CD again, delete the blank partition, and resize the Windows install partition to fill up the rest of the drive.

    Another thing, if/when you download Ubuntu, it will come as a .ISO file. You will need a CD writing program capable of writing images. You can't just burn the file. Nero, Roxio, etc will do the trick. A really good free one is InfraRecorder.

    If you want detailed instructions from start to finish, I'd be more than happy to help you.

    about 10% or something, not much

    also, could it merge a windows install partition with a blank partition if they were both using the same filesystem (i.e. NTFS)

    thanks

    Yes, it most certainly can, as long as you haven't used up all of your hard drive space.

    Can you tell me what percentage of you hard drive has been used?
