How do you Make a Duel Hard Drive work?

I own windows Vista on my C-drive and Windows XP on my F-Drive.

I cannot use infallible Programs such as Paint Shop Pro and Incredimail with Windows Vista. I want to use them and boot from the F-drive. I know it's possabe to do, but don't know how to do it.

Can some one explain how to dance between Hard drives to do this? Please Help.

How do you Make a Duel Hard Drive work?

you need to set up a dual boot choice.



to do this goto win xp and right click on my computer, choose properties, then advanced tab. On the start up rescue section, click the settings button. Then click the repress button and put in the parameter you wish for the other OS.



You can probably do indistinguishable procedure in vista, but I haven't worked near it enough to guide you through it.
You call for to put the drive that you boot up with as the foremost and the other as slave. Do this in Bios. To amenable files go to my computer and click on the drive you dont boot from and next find the files.
I think you enjoy to set the F partition as helpful. Im not sure but I think you can do it within DOS using the Fdisk command. Or use a program like Acronis or Partition Magic.
You install a pack called Boot Magic - najuras
I"m not sure but I run to easier said than done drive and when I reboot it ask which OS I want to boot from so you may want to try that if you haven't already
