[Royal.Ninja]

Hello

I have searched forum and Google to but not founded solution of my problem that's why am posting this thread

I downloaded latest Kali ISO (2016.2) of 64 bit
Am installing Kali on HDD
Ask want to dual boot my Kali Linux and Windows 10 pro

Am using laptop of HP 8 GB ram and i3 processors

So my problem is

After Detecting my drives
Kali Linux drive partition where we choose where to install Kali it's not showing me my 146 GB unlocated partition rather then it's showing me a combination of
My "C" "D" and "E" which is of 827 GB Drives on which if I tried to partition my window will be corrupted in simple it's showing me 4 primary Partition like this

#1 primary 1.0 MB
#2 primary 524 MB ..B..ntfs
#3 primary 172 GB ....ntfs
#4 primary 827 GB
So basically it's not showing me my unlocated Partition of 146 GB

So can anyone tell me what i do help will be appreciated

Well I asked you the same thing here but you didn't reply. In a partitioning method while installation, installer asks you which method do you want to choose:
Guided-use entire disk
Guided-use entire disk and choose LVM
Guided-use entire disk and set up encrypted LVM
Manual

which one are you choosing?

Am choosing Manual

Assign a drive letter to your unallocated partition and see if it reads it separately. You can also temporarily remove the drive letter from your Local disk so that installer doesn't count them as one.

I tried but still it's showing them as one

ok i will try hope it works bcz i have literally done everything edit it's not working

I found that partitions above your C drive are not being counted as one so try deleting your unallocated partition and create a new one behind or above your C partition. The disk arrangement should look like:

Unallocated
C:
E:
G:
Installer is counting C+E+G as one right? So it should read unallocated as different.

I tried that corrupted my window

How it is corrupted? Creating unallocated partition doesn't cause any harm.

Dont know but let me try again
