Turn off Win7/XP Dual Boot
Hello,
I have a created a system using Windows 7 64-bit and Windows XP Professional. My C Drive is the Win 7 while the D Drive is the old Windows XP. I am ready to abandon Windows XP and go with Windows 7 only. My C drive is a SATA drive while my D Drive is an old PATA drive. I wish to disable Windows XP and format the D Drive.
In Disk Management, My Windows 7 Disk is Disk 2/Drive C: with Boot, Page File, Crash Dump and Primary Partition.
My Windows XP Disk is listed as DISK 0/Drive D with System, Active and Primary Partition
Since the boot info is on the Windows 7, could I just take the D Drive out of the system without any problems?
Is there a way to tell the boot to ignore the D Drive as a drive with an operating system on it before I remove the D Drive?
Thanks,
