Well I haven't used Windows in years. I had a new machine put together with 320GB hard drive and I have installed the Windows 7. I would like to now install Intrepid. I need a really good How-To thread as I do not want to screw up and any time I have tried partitioning for installing other versions of Linux, I always seem to get the errors when I select 'guided' I didn't 'size' it correctly. So any help would great.

Followed EXACT instructions in the link given in post #2 and all went smooth. Dual boot worked excellent.
