asked on Adding dual boot Windows 7 to Windows 10 PC
I bought a Lenovo Yoga 3 with a 256gb hard drive. It comes with Windows 10 on it, but I need Windows 7 for work. I have choice of wiping the drive and installing 7 or installing Windows 7 as a dual boot additional OS in another partition. I know I can install a dual boot Windows 10 on any machine with 7 already installed and it will automatically create a dual boot menu, but does it work the same way if I try to install 7 on a 10 machine? If not, is there any known issue with wiping it and installing just 7? Also, would 256gb be sufficient space for the two partitions? Thanks for the help.

Thanks Rindi. What exactly are the advantages of using a virtual machine over a dual boot?
You can run both OS's simultaneously. You don't have to reboot to change your OS.
