Hi.
So I've used the windows installer to install ubuntu all my life. However I recently bought a new pc shipped with windows 8 pre-installed, and I heard you cannot use the windows installer with windows 8. My PC is 64 bit and with a 1 TB HDD.
I got stuck at this step in the installation:

I have no idea which is the windows and ubuntu section. I don't wanna end with a puny 100 GB for windows. Who knows? Maybe I'll be returning back to windows.
Also how does this step affect my HDD? Does it create a new partition? Or sets a limit for itself on the drive? And finally, what drive is selected? I have a C:/ drive and a D:/ drive.
I need help ASAP
A lot of thanks,
Ali
