How Do You Dual Boot A Vista Computer With Two Hard Drives?
Dual booting with two hard drives allows some significant advantages over dual booting with only a single drive. Aside from better access speeds due to the separate physical drives, you’ll have more space to work with. What’s more, the setup process will be easier because, instead of having to steal some of your Vista installation’s hard disk space, you can just use the second hard drive as a space to install the second operating system. Other than those advantages, setting up a dual boot on a computer with two hard drives is no different from setting one up on a computer with only one hard drive. Transfer any important data from the second hard drive (the one that’s not being used for your Vista installation files) to the one with Vista installed on it. This won’t be necessary if the second hard drive is new. To be on the safe side, you may want to back up that data someplace else as well. Insert the installation disk for the second operating system you wish installed on your computer
