I use it in dual-boot with windows with no kind of issue, you have to burn the old non-shrinked image so that it will not auto-expand. If you have not installed windows yet, burn nvOC first, then install windows on the second partition, then restore grub in the mbr of the drive and from nvOC let grub detect the windows install as a second boot option. As an alternative you can sue windows boot manager do manage dual-booting, i.e. leaving windows boot loader in the mbr and adding nvOC as BCD record.

If you already have windows installed, just dd the main partition only from the image (you need to mount the raw disk as loopback device and dd the right /dev/loopbackX to unallocated ssd space), then create missing boot records in your favorite bootloader.

Another viable option would be to just installa a standard dual boot from ubuntu live media, install all needed packages and clone the nvOC git repo in your ~ directory.

It all depends on your noob level :-) (but please, avoid buying a second ssd for that, in the worst case you can enable raid in your motherboard controller such that you see two separate full drives)
