  You are right! Thank you.

   Good.

&gt;<i> If you want a challenge, you could convert it to GPT (with a hybrid table for

</I>
   What advantage would there be for me to convert to GPT?
(Which would involve removing everything fro the drive first, so no
dual boot setup)

What do you mean by &quot;hybrid table for Msw&quot;? (What is &quot;Msw?!)

When you say &quot;which I have done several times with Mageia&quot; I take it
you mean giving the whole drive (thus  ditching Windows) to the Mageia
installer to re-format to GPT, instead of the 'legacy' MBR partitioning.
