Hi Gregrocker:
I am trying to achieve an enviornment just like what staffy has outlined - to have win XP and win 7 each installed on separate HDD.
Questions are:
1.) Does the XP auto delete restore point in win 7 still apply here? Do I need to tweak the registry per the guide given?
2.) Can you give a more detail description of this one-time-boot-menu we are talking about here? My understanding of this is to have win XP install on one HDD first (with win 7 HDD disconnected), then install win 7 on another separate HDD (this time with the XP HDD disconnected). No need for the "software" dual boot config setup as the boot will be controlled by BIOS during a restart. During a actual restart, hit the F12 menu and select either the win XP or win 7 HDD to start loading OS. Is my understanding correct?
3.) reference to step 2 above, will this result in any interference? Last thing I need is to do a repair on the win 7 HDD as I don't have admin right.
Thanks for yr help!
