i had windows 7 torrented version build 7000 in my 29GB c:drive.now i obtained a pc bsd 7.0 os and did a fresh install .but coul;d not create a dual boot.
i tried to install xp in the second partition (41GB)but the message came as --delete an existing partition and create a new one ---i did it and selected the destination drive for installation but it would not boot saying that create a bootable partition and follow installation again , and says that some files are missing

 

please give a remedy for this
now my 120 GB hard drive shows only two visible volumes in the DOLFIN interface.

Don't publicly list your email!

Anyways, are you sure you got a "legit" (unmodified) copy of Windows 7? Info on finding "legit" torrents here: How To: Install Windows 7 on an XP or Vista Machine
