[Pro] dual boot xp / xp - help!
I need some advice in how to proceed here. For various reasons I would like to have two XP installs on my computer, one being my 'old' XP system and one being my freshly installed 'new' XP system.
So I put a new hard drive in my system and intalled a fresh windows, then I plugged the old bootable drive into my secondary master connector. So far so good.
I then tried using bootmagic 8, but the copy I own is a couple of years old, and installing it caused me nothing but grief, including some panicy moments when I thought that I had destroyed one of the drives.
Anyways, bootmagic doesn't seem all that NTFS friendly and I figure there has to be a better way. In theory, setting this up should be dead simple. Both installs work on their own, and they are on separate drives. I just need a small GUI that will let me choose which one to boot on.
Any suggestions?
