              Hows that

              When you boot up you will be given the choice of which os to boot into ... choose which or it will boot into which ever is set to be the default os.

              As for installation ... when installing the os you choose to do a fresh full install ... you then choose the partition / hard drive to install to.

              I have done this with 4 hard drives running xp / w7 running 32bt and 64 bt versions. due to the fact i use different versions of windows to do different things. I mainly use the 64bt os for video work as it works really well adobe cs4 / cs5.

                  I have never followed any real rules when doing this .... As all the os are going to separate hard drives i do not think it matters. ( will stand corrected if any body thinks different )

                  The main thing is to ensure you do a full install and that it goes to the hard drive you want it to.

                  When booting you will be given a choice of which os to boot into.

                          Yeah right. "History 5 sold" used in a small cafe, my arse, does it smell of coffee

                          Well one owner from new, but as it was a gaming one, was it raced and rallied?

                          That would be a great machine to use for hacking WIFI with, and trying to crack passwords on rar files, whilst simutainsly viewing DK

                              if you see if they are seagate or maxtor drives, you can download a programme (dont know name - cant rember) that tell you how many miles the hard drives has done, divide by 365 and 24 (sorry just pissed at the mo) and work out how many days it's been running.
