| 750048 | 2009-02-21 19:25:00 | Howdy, I'm adding XP as a dual boot option for Vista (I know it should be done first, but I have the how to and just want to practise :) I have several empty hard drives installed, so my question is> Do I create a partition on my C drive (where vista is) to place XP in, or do I use another empty drive to sit xp in? I'm guessing on the same drive, but appreciate the input! Cheers |
