7. Create several partitions by clicking the New button and entering a size for each partition.When you’re finished select the partition you want to install Windows to and click the Next button. Windows will install to that partition. The space on the other partition will be available as its own separate drive letter in Windows. In this tutorial I chose to use entire hard disk without other partition’s but my recommendation is to create two partition’s:
– Windows partition (c:) size: 70 – 100 GB.
– Back up partition (D:) size:  depending upon the free space of your hard disk that left.

8. Select the partition you want to install Windows to and click the Next button.
