| 746122 | 2009-02-09 03:19:00 | Thats right it'll ask you which one you want to boot from. Once its installed, and you reboot | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||

| 746124 | 2009-02-09 03:26:00 | The only prob I had was with this old K8N mobo. Win 7 didnt install or have Nforce drivers for the LAN, or soundcard. BUT, I managed to find some that worked |

| 746125 | 2009-02-09 03:46:00 | Windows 7 is very simple to dual boot with. Just shrink D or C drive a bit. Then install W7 on the free space. |

| 746126 | 2009-02-09 04:15:00 | Dual booting is very easy to set-up, usually the older o/s is installed 1st (XP on 1 drive), the later o/s Vista\7 or other, and install on 2nd drive. The 2nd install will up date the boot loader for you giving an operating system menu after PC POST. I do this and re-direct my documents to a 3rd drive which also other partitions. In XP, I have the Vista partition or drive label V:\Vista, the XP drive c:, In Vista XP = X: Vista C:, Setup your shares correctly, each o/s has access to the same data files, music, storage and games... |

| 746128 | 2009-02-09 09:07:00 | Well I have 7/64 installed on D: and it is running well. Now some more expert advice. How do I run a program installed on C: and E: in 7? How do I setup e-mail in 7? IE works ok but I have no OE and I can't find anywhere to set it up |
