I am dual booting window 8 in my window 7 laptop and I have already partitioned drive of 100 GB but window 8 could not installed in the drive it says there is a lot of dynamic files in this drive. Plz help me out .....
 
Solution
OK, boot into Windows 7 and open Disk Manager. Delete your new 100Gb Partition so that it leaves 100Gb Unallocated Space and try W8 installation again...
When you get to the 'Where do you want to Install Windows' screen, use 'Drive Options (Advanced)' to delete the partition you created, and install Windows to the 100Gb Unallocated Space. That way Windows can create a System Reserved (350Mb) Partition and all will be well...
