However, I do not know, if gparted can handle GPT-partitions. I never owned Win8! And Win7 should still use NTFS, which should be cause no problems. However, I already saw a laptop without the possibility to switch off UEFI in the BIOS. What I thinking of that, I am not allowed to tell here. :) > --doug Hans -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
