it depends with how much editing do you want to do

you can buy semi pro to professional editing software or general ones like google picasa

Or get some tech guys to install vmware for you.It's like having two laptops in one. While partititioning is also good,you'd have to log out of one to access the other OS unlike vmware.

hello sir
to install a multiboot system
right click on my computer - click on manage - click on disk management - select your C: drive and right click - then select shrink.
just let windows do the rest by clicking ok or apply as the case might be.

after it creates the new space. insert your windows xp installation disk into your drive and then restart your system.
boot from the CD and let windows do the rest,

hope this helps

@deji2009

especially in nigeria where people cant be bothered to buy an original charger instead make in china.

guy i am not everyone and i don't buy china products when it comes to my gadgets

That does not mean the poster is from nigeria just an example basically.

i am from nigeria and i don't see how my being a nigerian is solving my problem

although your[b] "reconstruction of the problem"[/b] is accurate, i couldn't get what the heck you were writing as regards to a solution.

So write some english that i can understand, as your supposed to be in england as your profile says so some simple english shouldn't be a problem.thx

On my windows 7, the windows defender gives this kind of error message when there's a conflict between it and the antivirus. I suggest you turn off windows defender or do away with the antivirus.

Sorry mate, if you can't find the drivers on OEM's website,you probably won't find it anywhere else.

It's been over a week now that my Window 7 OS stopped installing updates, It will download but won't install, instead it will say "Failure configuring windows update, reverting changes" What could be the cause?
