Hi

I have two drives installed C and E ide drives . Now I have cloned C to E and would like to now how to dual boot so that I can in fact choose E or C on start up

I am running windows xp pro . I thought by running the xp cd and doing a repair it would pick up the two systems but it doesnt pick up the second hard drive

any ideas ?

thanks in advance

You can't do that if you cloned XP, because the source of the clone is C:\. If you put that on E:\ you will get errors because your registry points everything to C:\, not E:\.

You have to reinstall.

So what partition is active now ? This is important because that one becomes C once you boot. From there on any boot manager will do.
