CD/DVD Drive problems in both Win 7 & XP
Ok I have Win XP on a ide drive (still use)
I bought Win7 and installed on a seperate drive (sata)
I also Have a 1TB Storage drive for media, files etc... (sata)
Now how do I do a dual boot with what operating system I want to start with
Currently, I am disconnecting one of the drives from inside the case to use either Xp or 7.
As I know when using XP it says C Drive
and the same for Win7 when Im using that...
Think it will crash or fail to install as they both say C Drive where the O.S. is.
------------------------------------
Ok.I got it using Easy BCD..with no issues apart from a major one now!
I have 4 Sata connections on mobo
1-Data Drive for files / media (1TB)
2-Win 7 (320Gb)
3-DVDRW Drive
4-Blank
on iDE cable - is Win XP
Now upon startup where it asks wither I want 7 or XP I can open/eject the drive but when either
OS Starts and is ready to use ...my drive sticks ...cant open screen freezes!
Tried in 4th Sata connection and also other drive and same thing happens!
Mobo specs are : MCP6P M2+
4GB Memory
Thanks
