windows 7 in one Hard disc and windows XP in another? will it work?

[Amit Windows7]

I have two Internal Hard disc's... one is 1TB, and another one is 500GB.

i wanna know if there's any problem if i install win7 in 1TB and win XP in the 500GB hard disc, and put both in one PC. Could i be able to choose which one to start during boot after that, like in Linux?

No problems at all, but only have one plugged in at a time for installation.

During boot, select which disk you want to boot into.

Regards,
Golden

I need to ask... the link you posted is good and it works (I did it before) but only when you are trying to dual boot with 1 hard drive... as I understand it, the OP wants to do it with 2 different hard drives.

I am thinking that what Golden says makes a lot more sense... install 1 OS per hard drive but Unplug the other while you are doing so.
