How do I reinstall Windows 8.1 Pro On A Surface Pro 2?

I just acquired a Surface Pro 2 with a 512 GB SSD.  I need to create another 410 GB partition  and tried to shrink the Windows (C:) partition.  Unfortunately, even through it only currently uses around 20 GB it will not let me shrink
it below 241 GB.  I need to get it down to 60 GB. 
Is there anyway to do this without reinstalling?  If not, what do I have to do to reinstall?

I apologize for the duplicate post but I mistakenly posted in the Windows 7 Hardware Compatibility forum by mistake.

I am trying to determine if it is possible to replace Lenovo Thinkpads some running Windows 7 & some running Windows 8.1 with Surface Pro 2s running Windows 8.1.  The Surface Pro 2 has significantly better resolution and a slightly
larger SSD plus the touch screen.  Unfortunately, the Lenovos are partitioned with a 40 GB C: drive and a 407 GB V: drive and the applications expect that.
Is there any way to do this without reinstalling?  If not, what do I have to do to reinstall and create a different deployment image?

    How do I download windows 7 on my macbook pro step by step.

    Here's the Boot Camp setup guide. It requires a Windows 7 installation disk, but you can create one on a USB stick, if you have downloaded a full copy of Windows 7, using those instructions.

  • How do I reinstall Adobe Acrobat XI Pro?

    I unistalled Adobe Acrobat XI Pro.  I am a Creative Cloud member.  I want to reinstall Adobe Acrobat XI Pro.  HOWEVER, my Creative Cloud app manager shows that I already have it and I can't reinstall it.  I've signed out of the CC desktop app, and signed back in again.  It still shows that I have Acrobat XI Pro.  Help!

  • Does anyone know how to put 6 windows in premiere pro cc  for multi cameras,  for 6 cameras actually

    Does anyone know how to put 6 wndows in premiere pro cc for multi cameras, for 6 cameras actually.

    The workflow that Jim spelled out is for doing what's called a "multi-cam edit." This allows you to conveniently switch among different video clips, often from multiple cameras that shot the same performance or event. The end result is a segment where only one clip is visible at a time.
    The way I read your question, what you want to do is show six clips all at once, which is typically referred to "picture in picture." To do that, follow the first 3 steps Jim provided. (By the way, in Step 2, the key is to stack the clips on six different tracks, as opposed to lining them up head-to-tail.) Then select each clip in turn and use the Position and Scale controls in the Effect Controls Panel to shrink it and move it where you want within the frame. Here's a tutorial video on this workflow: http://tv.adobe.com/watch/adobe-beginner-classes-with-dennis-radeke/episode-7-adobe-premie re-pro-picture-in-picture/.

  • How do I reinstall windows 8 on my x1 3443 CTO?

    Hi,
    I want to completely wipe my current install of windows 8 as I have too many programs junking it up. I want to reinstall it again and start fresh. But when I got the laptop lenovo didn't send me a windows disc so I am not sure now to go about this. Also, when I look on the bottom there is no sticker with a Windows serial number, only a small sticker that says "Windows 8 Pro". I should have a serial number to use, but I am not sure where to find this.
    Please help!
    Thanks.

  • Font is missing on the install prompt.  How do I reinstall all standard macbook pro system fonts?

    I recently installed a font pack and then removed the fonts shortly thereafter. Apparently the font that is used in the "install prompt" (the window that pops up for me to enter a password before installing new software) is now missing. The window pops up but everything is blank.  How do I go about reinstalling all of the standard macbook pro system fonts?
    Thanks!

  • Hard drive failed, how can I reinstall Windows 7?

    The hard drive failed on my dad's laptop.  Replacing it isn't a problem, but I'm not sure how to get Windows 7 back onto it.  His laptop came with it installed already and he doesn't have any backup discs.  Will HP send discs so that I can reinstall the OS?  I'd rather not have to buy a new OS.

    Hi,

  • How can I reinstall Motion/DVD Studio Pro using my new serial no.

    I used to have my office copy of Motion on my computer. Now that I got my own I want to reinstall it. But whenever I did that I still have the same Motion/DVD Studio Pro as was installed with the older serial no.

    Any help will be much appreciated.

  • I purchased CS6 and had problems with the Adobe Acrobat Pro so i uninstalled and now need to reinstall but serial number wont work. How can i reinstall ONLY Adobe Acrobat Pro since its included in CS6?

    I purchased Design Standard CS6 the entire package. I downloaded and installed but I was continually having problems with Adobe Acrobat Pro. I tried updating to the newest version but it only made the problems worse (acrobat was super slow and constantly not responding). So i decided to try to uninstall and then reinstall the program. Well I uninstalled, and then attempted to reinstall ONLY the adobe acrobat pro but it says my serial number (which is for design standard) will not work. Since Acrobat Pro is included in the suite, i thought this wouldnt be a problem. Is there anyway to get around this without uninstalling the entire design standard and reinstalling everything? I only need to reinstall acrobat pro.

    You need to reinstall Acrobat the the Creative Suite, you cannot download it is a separate application and install it that way because it will be looking for a serial number relative to being a singly purchased application.

  • New Hard Drive in my T43. Now how do I reinstall Windows XP?

    Since I will be installing a new hard drive I cannot use the recovery that is on the computer.  Can I make a OS disc from the original hard drive before I remove it?  What can I do besides buy a whole new copy of Windows XP Pro?
    Please help.
    Thank You 

    > Can I make a OS disc from the original hard drive before I remove it?
    You should be able to create a set of CDs using the TV Rescue and Recovery utility.
    > What can I do besides buy a whole new copy of Windows XP Pro?
    Better still, use something like Acronis TrueImage to copy all of your data, including OS, from the old HD to the new. Some HD makers, e.g. Seagate's DiscWizard, offer a free utility that does this. It's available on their website. You'll also need an external USB enclosure or similar interface that allows you to have both HDs connected to your T43. There are lots of threads on this forum that provide step-by-step instructions for doing this.
