Contro we are all here to try and help. You can see by the posts we are somewhat confused. You are trying to do something as far as I know has not been done before with Windows 7 because their/there is no legal reason to do so. I know of no one who is going to try such a thing on their/there multi hard drive system in order to figure it out and take the chance of mucking up their/there own system. What you did using XP is of no concern. You have had some very good information given to you by some very experienced people (exclude me). It's up to you to take it or leave it. Having one Windows 7 on one computer at one time works for the rest of the world. From there/their you can do all the backup for emergency that you care to do. If networking is your concern one Windows 7 will take care of your needs. If you desire another complete computer for backup emergency needs all you have to do is install another paid for Windows 7 and install it on that another computer with the programs you desire or need. I'm done.
Have a good day.
