linux graphics driver and hard drive questions?

start Gparted in ubuntu, in the top right hand side you see picture of a hard drive with /dev/sda with the drive size in brackets like (111.5 GiB) your windows partition will be the biggest partition, click on the down arrow and it will show the Linux partition, with /dev/sdb and size being 10,00 GiB

click on the windows drive which should be Green click on the partition to high light it, then click on the word partition at the top, a menu drops down, click on Resize/Move, then another menu drops down, drag the arrow from the right towards the middle this shrink the drive size to what ever size you want the windows partition to be, then click on the Resize/Move, button and it will Resize the drive, wait for it to Resize,

Once that is done you will then click on the Linux drive (right hand side) /dev/sdb the blue color and do the same, Click on the word partition click on resize, this time you will increase the size to the maximum size you give it from the windows partition, then click on Resize again, wait for it to Resize.

I would first do a windows disk clean up then defrag windows before you do a disk resize this will save you a lot of time and resizing the windows partition and Linux partition is going to take a long time, it's not a 5 minute job

As for the graphics driver for the dual monitors you will need to download the the proprietary drivers for that, go to ubuntu user forums (help) and ask there how it is done

good luck

Umm, no longer all persons are struggling with a dropping conflict. i've got not had a substantial an infection of any style for the previous 5 or so years (some monitoring cookies here and there at maximum). The consumer, no longer the anti virus application, could consistently be the 1st line of protection against infections. and that i at present use living house windows as my substantial OS using fact we've a protracted thank you to bypass before application builders initiate designing for Linux. I do particularly some gaming, photograph modifying, and 3-D animation and a majority of the Linux techniques are mediocre and Linux gaming is a comedian tale with very few community titles. And living house windows variations which you will get working take a extensive overall performance hit. yet definite, for Joe Public who spends the final public of their time surfing the internet, setting up a Ubuntu distro could save some issues. regardless of if, stable success in case you run into compatibility subject concerns with your sound card or prompt networking.
