i am currently making a gaming pc, and with it im getting a new harddrive. but, i want to keep my old harddrive. i read some posts here and on other forums about multi-booting. but most of them either weren't very helpful or only had to do with partitions.
the harddrive i have right now has Windows XP on it, and the one i dont have yet will have Windows Vista(Ultimate or Premium). so, how would i theoretically go about multi-booting these OSs? do i just plug both in and it will magically work? i doubt it.... but who knows?
and one site, i read that the older OS had to be the first harddrive. so, if i plug my XP harddrive into my SATA1 port of my power supply, and the Vista harddrive into the SATA2 port of my power supply, will this work?
