Hey, I have XP installed on my computer, and new games are coming out that aren't XP compatible -- I'd like to install 2 OS on 1 drive, is this possible? My C drive is 233G and my XP system is only taking up 23G of it, can I partition the drive, install 7 on the other partition and modify the boot.ini to boot into either XP or 7 on the same drive?

Windows XP SP3

AMD Radeon HD 6850 - 1024MB

MotherBoard:
ASUSTeK Computer INC. P5K SE Rev 1.xx
Bus Clock: 200 megahertz
BIOS: American Megatrends Inc. 0401 07/19/2007
Realtek Onboard Audio

3328 Megabytes DDR2 RAM

Processor:
2.00 gigahertz Intel Pentium Dual
64 kilobyte primary memory cache
1024 kilobyte secondary memory cache
 
You should be able to install windows 7 on that. And do a dual boot.
 
Hello, can you tell me the best way to do this? Should I boot with the Windows disk and partition that way or install it through XP without partitioning, or how do I do it?

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
