Good points, both. But you may need to slipstream the AHCI driver since most PC's today which would need the driver don't have floppy support via F6.
SATA Drivers - Load in Windows XP Setup on Dual Boot
SATA Drivers - Slipstream into Windows XP CD
But try changing to IDE mode in BIOS first.

Can dual OS boot install on separate hdd...
- like windows 7 in one hdd, and windows xp in another hdd..
Thanks
Hello Jordan, and welcome to Seven Forums.
Yes, you sure can. You would follow the same steps, but just select to install it on the separate HDD instead. Be sure that you have both HDDs connected during installation. :)
Even if XP is already installed on the first hdd?
Yes. Win7 will configure a Dual Boot with XP on another HD or partition on same HD, when it is installed last.
Brink, Gregrocker thanks this is great news
So when i boot up the Windows XP Professional CD i get to the part where is says Press F6 and F2 to do so and so and it starts loading the Drivers. Then when it says starting Windows it crashes giving me a Blue Screen. What can i do?
