boot - 16.04 'Alongside' Windows 7 install option - Ask Ubuntu


in previous installs, saw line item option install 16.04 alongside windows:

enter image description here

a failed attempt boot , install ubuntu (screen freeze) followed ubuntu usb attempt: 'alongside' install option not present: enter image description here

exploration of 'something else' menus result in wiping existing windows install (would avoid , have dual-boot system).

question

  1. is possible , steps restore 'install alongside windows' option?
  2. is problem unique windows 7? or 16.04?

procedures, reference, suggestions , lessons-learned appreciated.

try defrag windows first , install ubuntu
