Hi.
Windows 7 was freshly installed today and in my haste I installed Ubuntu without going into Windows Partition Manager to shrink its own partition. I used the automatic partitioner during the Ubuntu install and set the sizes of each partition accordingly. I have since read that maybe this wasn't such a wise move!
So after rebooting into Windows, Windows did a CHKDSK and booted fine. Everything seems to be running fine with both Ubuntu and Windows. Do you think I've got away with it? Should I install everything again but use Windows Partition Manager or just leave it be? Thing is I don't want to install lots of things for both Windows and Ubuntu only to find out down the line Windows is a bit messed up. Is there anything in Windows I can run to confirm that the partition is intact and functioning normally?
I am using an mSata drive by the way.
Thanks.
