I have 2 physical hard drives (not partitions) and i was
wondering how to get the dualboot option. On my Primary
drive i have Windows XP Pro and on the slave drive in
have Windows Me.
--background info
I think i know why i dont have the option: I
disconnected my main hard drive wind windows xp pro and
in installed the new one to make sure it worked and all
and while the Primary was disconnected i installed
windows ME on the Slave hard drive (while i used it as
the primary one) so when i connected my primary again and
i put the new one as slave it didnt detect it or
something.

In order to dual boot the system now, you would need a third party boot
manager such as the one that comes with Bootit.
http://www.terabyteunlimited.com/. or the one that comes with PowerQuest's
Partition Magic, www.powerquest.com.

What about a Bios that can change which drive to boot from?
