> You can run linux on Windows but still can't install a dual boot system with Linux first. IMO that says it all
Long time Kubuntu user dual-booting with GRUB, never experienced this.
I have UEFI enabled and both OS's on separate physical drives.

If not, please share the instructions on how you installed Linux first, and Windows second, because I'd really like to know.
One question - did you shrink partition from the front, or from the back of the disk?
Usually Windows has to be in front of the Linux, so if it's from the back, I'd really have to try that!
As far as I know the order never actually mattered as long as Windows could have a primary partition. The newer GPT system doesn't have such a distinction or low limits (Windows is limited to 128 partitions per disk; I think Linux can handle more).
