    First off, I believe that this might go in the Computers and Technology section. But I don't care. ^^

    Okay, factory-programmed laptops are not meant to be played with like that. They purposely make all customization difficult. Messing with partitions is almost a guaranteed annoyance. However, when you start up your system, look for the Boot Menu. It is usually activated by an F-somenumber button. You click that, then select the partition that you want to use. Messing with partitions and new Operating Systems on factory laptops not only screws up the system half the time, but voids the warranty.
