:thumb:Thanks Abarbarian, I am pretty pleased with my self but I have still have to do a dual boot with Zorin but have held off to ensure that W 8.1 is running OK. Would advise to dual boot or install Zorin on the D drive as I have another 2tb drive installed on the PC:confused:

I usually use separate hdd for each os as it makes life a bit easier. I tend to loose track of which partition belongs to what if I put two os's on one drive. :lol:

Looks like Urmas has given you the solution at the above thread. Have a read through all the steps an if you have questions fire away. Looks a bit daunting but if you jot down Drive letters "C" or "D" and what is installed where that will help to keep you straight. Having the guide running on another pc or a laptop is a neat way to go. That is what I usually do for a fresh Arch install. :thumb:
