Yeah, good point, forgot to ask about that.

Yep, exactly what I was gonna say.

And you could take care of that just by having a space heater set at blow only (heaters off) blow at the window. It will clear everything up.

That is a good option as well, but for experienced users only and only if you have a lot of RAM and a UPS (or on a laptop with a working battery). Otherwise, power failiures mess that thing up.

You can make a swap file on the main partition where Linux is installed, that's not a problem.

For Linux, if you're a beginner, EXT4. Experienced users - BTRFS.

And ntfs-3g is even better at writing on NTFS than Windows is. There are fragmentation examples online, Windows makes a fragmented mess while ntfs-3g takes great care regarding fragmentation. Plus reads/writes a lot faster than Windows does.

Yep, use NTFS. You can access it in both Windows and Linux. You'll need to install ntfs-3g in Linux. It comes bundled in most mainstream distros, but just in case.

Windows: 150GB. Linux: 100GB. The rest: Data.

And don't forget to disable hybrid shut down in Windows.
