What programs are you trying to install..? I just turn the compatibility services off and install away.
This is the guide I followed. Just steps 1-4 and I didn't boot into safe mode either. Worked fine.
If that doesn't work I used to use Partition magic back in the days but I haven't had to partition my hdd for years so I don't know if it's still any good.

Drawn into the darkness here with your eyes on the prize at stake.
Faint hearts on an endless path letting go of the ones we break.
