A buddy of mine would like to use both XP and Vista on his machine and he came to me for help as to how he should go about setting that up. I've looked through the countless articles on the internet about the subject and I'm still confused about how to create a partition without losing any of the information on the hard drive.
His hard drive is fairly small... 80GB in total with about 40 gigs free. If I were to create the partition and install the other OS on it, how would the two partitions behave? Say I'm working on C: which has vista installed. Can I save to D: which has XP installed? The format is the same for both OS (NTFS) as far as I know, so it should work.
If he were to get another hard drive, could it work that way? Install XP on one hard drive, and Vista on the other?
Thanks in advance
