Hi everyone,
I wanna dual boot Windows 7 with Windows XP HOME SP3.
I have seen multiple guides telling me how to do it if I was to use the same physical hard drive but then partition it, but I was wondering if it was different if you wanted to have XP on your primary drive and then install Seven onto a seperate physical drive.
Both drives are SATA, and both are curretly recognised by XP. So tell me, what do i have to do sifferently if I want to dual boot with Xp and Seven when I have 2 drives.
And now a more important question.
What happens when I want to uninstall Seven?
Do I just format the secondary hard drive and then everything will be solved? And I wont have any problems with booting into XP?
Or could it be potentially dangerous, maybe making XP not show up/ making it unbootable?
Any help is appreciated, thankyou everyone!
