How do you install XP Media Center OS on two different hardrives in the same computer?

I don't think you can do that because there may well be a conflict in running the OS at startup. The computer will be confused as to which HDD to run off. But there is another way where you can install two OS on the one HDD on the same computer. Type in the search box of XP Help and Support window; dual systems and select 'Installing more than one operating system on your computer' and follow the instructions. At bootup, after successfull nstallation you'll be asked which OS to startup. Warning: have a backup when proceeding with new installations, just in case.
