If you just have some Windows partitions and then free space for Linux, 
you shouldn't have remove or delete anything at that point. You just 
want to create new partitions in the free space.

I'm sorry but I've not done the Fedora installs enough to have it 
memorized, but I believe there is a manual partition option as Peter 
says. I would suggest choosing that. I think you need to do the custom 
install to get to that (not server or workstation).
