Hello, I have Windows 7 installed on a 750GB HDD. I have an extra hard drive with a capacity of 160GB, and I decided to install Windows XP on that one. So I restarted the PC with the disc in it, and it showed a bunch of partitions, so I picked the one with the one that had the name of the 160GB. So it installed fine, and I restarted the PC again and it didn't give me an option for what OS to choose from, it just went straight to XP on the 160GB. I was still able to read all my files and such on the HDD Windows 7 was on, though.
So I restarted again and put my Windows 7 disc at booted from that, ran the startup repair, and now I'm back with Windows 7 on the 750GB HDD. I'm pretty sure it kinda erased the XP, though, I'm inexperienced with this stuff so I'm really not sure, but how do I CORRECTLY install a second OS on a second hard drive? Thanks.
