Dual Boot Windows 7 VHD

Solution:

  • You have a nativley installed Windows 7 OS on your physical PC.
  • Check the Properties of your C volume and determine if you have enough free disk space INSIDE the C volume.
  • Create a new VHD on your C volume; e.g. this will make a 40GB disk in your C drive, adjust the size depending on your free space [create vdisk file="c:\Win2008.vhd" maximum=40000].
  • Shut down your PC and boot from your Windows 2008 install media.
  • Hit Shift+F10 to enter cmd, goto diskpart and run:
  • select vdisk file=c:\win2008.vhd
  • attach vdisk
  • Then continue through Setup and you will see that the VHD shows as a new disk to install too.  Select the disk and Setup will take care of all dual boot config.

If the issue is still not fixed, it can be a very critical problem with your computer affecting your personal data and the Windows Operating System. You will have to chat with our Experts or you can check with your local technician to get the problems fixed with very high priority.
