I have accomplished this on my computer because I bought a second hard drive for the purpose of a backup along with additional space. However, the Maxtor hard drive that I bought had a floppy disk that came with it which had several functions ranging from hard drive setup to diagnostics to partitioning and image copy. The image copy feature is what allowed me to take a snapshot of my primary drive and format and copy it to my secondary drive, overwritng any existing files you may I had on it. You do, however, need to be aware that software and system conflicts can arise by running two sets of Windows XP on the same computer at the same time, albeit they're on two separate drives. That's why I prefer to do this ONLY to use the second drive as a backup, not as a supplement. If you need a second hard drive simply to supplement your primary drive for added disk space purposes, I wouldn't recommend putting the full operating system on it. Just leave it as is and use the free space as needed with your primary.
You should definetely install PC mac first and then install windows 7 because if you do windows first it wont save correctly in PC mac.
First Install Virtual PC then download the iso file of windows7 then make a virtual partion and load the iso then its done!
People that bought a new PC and have not yet upgraded to Windows7
Dual booting means two operating system installed on PC. for example you install windows xp and windows vista at the same time. or windows xp and Linux on same PC. Dual booting is only a term you can install more than one operating system on one PC. for example you can install 10 windows xp copies on your 10 drives.
Use windows update, it will automatically locate missing drivers (sometimes it does not work).
Yes,we can connect windows xp and windows7 pcs through LAN.but in both of the pcs the firewall should be off.We can connect windows PC and Linux PC also.but we should have to install samba server in Linux PC.samba server acts as an interface between the windows and Linux platform.I have answer this question as of my knowledge.please send me an acknowledgement if it need s any corrections. Thanks Rajesh
There are many places one can get advice on how to install Windows XP. One can simply call Geek Squad, and they will assist with the installation process. There is also advice on installing Windows XP on sites such as PC World.
There are two ways to do this. Either install a software called Virtual PC and install Windows XP on the Virtual PC which basically means you switch on Windows 2003 and then use the Windows XP under the Virtual PC. I just checked and the good thing is you can install Virtual PC from http://www.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/virtualpc/default.mspx. The other alternative is backup your data and reinstall Windows XP on the server. The thing to note, on virtual PC, there is required licensing. Kind regards, Imtiaz.
get a windows install disc of windows, pop it in your disc tray, and do a fresh install pretty obvious answer isn't it?
1) Make sure your PC meets the minimum system requirements to install Windows Server 2008. 2) Buy Windows Server 2008. 3) Put the DVD in the drive and reboot your machine. 4) Boot from the DVD 5) Install Windows Server 2008
You will have to install Windows using Boot Camp.
If the hardware meet the minimum requirements most W XP PC's can install and run W 8.
