    Need help dual-booting Windows 10 with Windows 7


    Hi,
    I would like to dual-boot Windows 10 alongside with Windows 7. I am currently running Windows 7 with Ubuntu and PhoenixOS. Now I am planning to replace PhoenixOS (which is taking 20GB separate partition) with Windows 10. So I need help to get windows 10 installed with other dual-booted os.
    I use EasyBCD to dual-boot other os. I would like to make Windows 7 as the primary os and Windows 10 as secondary os. If possible I would like to dual-boot it again using EasyBCD too.

    Thanks.

    :)

    is it possible to dual boot a laptop with windows 10 as the 1st os on the machine, the reason i ask is that there is hardware that i need to use that is not compatible with windows 10 but with widows 7. so is it possible to dual boot windows 10 and windows
    7 ?

    thanks

    Hi Tasnim Tamim and welcome to the forum. If you type Dual Boot into the search box in the top right corner of the page you'll find many threads on how to do this. I recall seeing at least one thread involving dual booting with Ubuntu. You can repost to this thread with any issues you have after reading some of these threads.
