okay the problem is i am installing new windows on my dell laptop.
i booted from pendrive with win 8 on it choose custom install and deleted c: drive .
now when i choose this unallocated space to install windows it says windows can't be install here coz of GPT thing.
so i will have to clean my disk with diskpart.
BUT the main problem is i still have data on my Other drives .
SO HOW WILL I BACKUP MY DATA??

If you have a external USB harddrive you could download for example a ubuntu live dvd, boot from that and copy the stuff you need from your hdd to the usb drive.
