The action "Write changes to disk?" is not resizing the partition. It's
either going to take all of it or use available remaining disk space.
I may be wrong, but I think there's an option to install Fedora on the
remaining free space of the disk (with Win already installed).

If you don't mind spending another hour installing Win... let it go.
If you don't want to take chances, get the Live CD and it will be easier.
