vista and xp separate HD dual boot?

May 8th, 2008

Hi Guys!

i have just bought (amongst a new graphics card and tv tuner card) an OEM copy of windows vista home premium x64bit edition.

my question for whoever may be able to answer is..

what is the best method for creating a dual boot of vista and windows xp?

i have found a few guides that involve partitioning, but i dont particuarly want to do it this way. i have 4 harddrives instaled, including a 320gb and 500gb
i was hoping to have the dual boot set up having installed xp and vista on two *SEPARATE* harddrives.

would this be possible at all?

i hope if explained it clearly enough lol

thanks very much in advance for anyone's help!
