  • Backup Windows, and use Windows to shrink the NTFS partition. Reboot immediately so it can run chkdsk. Then be sure to boot installer in UEFI boot mode. Shows install with screen shots. Both BIOS purple accessibility screen & UEFI black grub menu screen https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI Something Else or manual Install http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/dual-boot-windows-8-ubuntu.html Also shows Windows 8 screens or similar to Windows 10 http://askubuntu.com/questions/221835/installing-ubuntu-on-a-pre-installed-uefi-supported-windows-8-system – oldfred May 21 '16 at 21:43

I see no reason why it shouldn't work just fine. To be on the safe side, try running a live session first and see how things go before proceeding with the installation.
