Preferably I would end up with just one partition (Windows C:) and the laptop would boot straight into Windows without any boot manager program.
This is up to you, of course, but even if I was going to install Windows on a machine I would not opt for a single large partition - instead I would make two partitions - a C: partition for Windows and software and a D: partition for all my data. That way when windows needs to be re-installed you can completely reformat C: and re-install without touching your data.
