if you are going for a windows 10 install then you have to install it first

otherwise you are going to have to use Easy BCD to fix your boot loader

I always recommend Dual Boot for PCs if you are playing MMO games such as Aces High

IE, having one installation of windows for your work / general purpose etc.

and having the other with only AH and whatever other games you play installed with the controller drivers etc.

Really?  Dual-Boot Windows. 
That is a horrible suggestion.  I hope nobody tries this.
Windows 10 is already a cluster-fu*k and you are suggesting to have two versions running together. 

I would recommend tweaking your OS the way you want.  Not dealing with two of them.

I have dual booted windows for years,
Currently my setup has 3 Operating systems installed

Windows 10
Windows 7
Ubutntu = Xubuntu

and has multiple VMs

I can also access all of the OS's as virtual machines

The Home Directories are sym linked through the registry

My Disks look like this.

Disk 1 1TB Raid 1 1Tb x 2 Mirrored
Partition 1
Windows 10 OS
Partition 2
Windows 7 OS
Partiton 3
Ubuntu

*Note All users directories have been moved to second drive and modified through the registry.
No Encrytion on home directories

Disk 2 3TB Radio 1 3TB x 2 Mirrored

Parition 1 2TB
users Directory (Mapped out from windows files)

Partition 2
Mirrored backup of the first drive


It works with Grub Boot Loader and I can change OS's by rebooting

But of course I am a total geek and have searched the net for years on how to dual boot PCs.

MY gaming system has 2x installtions of windows 7 and one install of linux

same config

Maybe Windows 7 & 10 can live side by side, I don't know.
I'm talking about dual booting Windows 10.  I just don't think that's a good idea.

I guess you have all the windows updates and rollup updates installed on your Windows 7 OS's as well, to where they have the "data gathering telemetry" running in the back ground among other things.....

I never cared much for toolkits like EasyBCD, Grub, Hiren's CD, etc...

I much prefer a Clean , tweaked smooth running OS

Glad what you got works for you and makes you happy, LTCClark

had trimmed down some processes the week of my crash , thinking i got rid of something i should not of

I thought everyone knew that.  iTunes for Windows is horrible.  Quite frankly, any application from Apple for Windows is bad.

I didn't. I have iTunes and iCloud installed on my Win7 desktop. I don't use iTunes anymore but use iCloud for photos. Should I delete both programs? If I keep iCloud, what are the potential risks?

They are very poor Windows applications.  Performance issues galore.  Game stutters, freezing, pausing, you name it.

It is like Apple is doing what it can to sabotage Windows.  That's a joke folks.

I have iTunes installed on one system that I use for recording games, storing travel videos, and as a backup for our Apple devices. I would never install it on a production machine, or one I use for gaming.

I have tried Razer Cortex as a process manager. I had made a video about it, but never posted because of the YouTube policy changes and because my uploads simply were not posting for some reason. It is even easier to use than AlacrityPC was when it was current.
