I just had a thought, would i be able to boot from the cd (without making any partitions) then when i get to the bit asking whether i want to create or delete any partitions, go to create new partition and install it on that? After that it says format new partition, will this delete anything on my hdd? I will back up the important stuff anyway.

Thanks

yes you can.

be aware though you will see your other OS files from within windows and they can accidently be deleted.

you will have 2 boot paths on startup
 
Oh right so they wont be installed or anything? When i go to add/remove programs they wont be there will they?
 
Ok i just worked out that i need to create a partition before i can install xp on it. Does anyone know what size i should make for XP Pro x64?
