Here's a question. Is it possible to have 2 separate
installs of the same version of Windows XP on the same
computer?
Here's what I want to do.
I bought a SATA hard drive, and obviously Windows ME will
not recognize it. I have 2 hard drives. The SATA is Drive
2, and have an ATA as Drive 1.
On drive 1, I installed WinME on a C: partition. Then I
installed a 'New' Windows XP upgrade on Drive 1 Partition
D:
All is OK so far. The system dual boots and I can work in
either operating system.
But I was thinking. Would it be possible to now do
the 'recommended' upgrade to WinME on the C: drive and
have WinXP installed on both C: and D: drives?
Has anyone out there successfully accomplished this?
The reason I dual boot my system is that I'm a gamer and I
use WinME for browsing, virus protection etc, and WinXP
strictly for gaming.
The only loss is detection of the SATA drive in WinME.
It's not a biggy, but I was just curious if it was
possible to do.
Thanks.
