I am running windows 7 and windows xp. I was using windows xp but now I love windows 7. I have 2 harddrives. One OS on each drive. The original master was running xp. How do I remove xp and keep windows 7 without formatting and losing all my data on the windows 7 drive?

thanks
 
If you're worried about accidentally formatting the Win 7 drive, disconnect it and use an Installation disk to wipe the XP drive, assuming it contains no valuable data. Use msconfig when booted into Win 7 to set Win 7 as the default and delete XP entry before you disconnect and format.
