I have an existing XP installation on a 160GB disk, with about 90 GB free.
I'm trying to install Windows 7 on the same hard drive, following directions from here.
The question is: How long should it take to run the "shrink" command, given the above parameters? How much space will that free up for Windows 7?
Apparently, if the defaults are more than what's available, it takes several hours - with little disk activity - before it reports the error condition. – chris – 2010-06-06T00:12:56.167
