I'm getting a new HD for XP already have HD with Vista64 need help

[passnthru2]

i need some information on how to run the 2 HD's separately

I'm thinking of later put putting Vista64 on the new 1Tb HD.. maybe

i am just sick if messing with the problems that still plague Vista, like other peoples programs not getting upgraded, or saying they are and they arent, i got all new vista compatible hardware..i thought. they still don't work, they disappear, i spend hours and hours.. days getting no where. so i thought I'd just park it till they get it fixed.

i built this rig last summer, i was wondering if i could run XP64 without a lot of problems.. i plan to get Dragon10 because I'm tired of typing with one hand, my left hand was reciently amputated.. that takes a Gig of ram and the are not going to have it updated to Vista64 till later next year, and i have a 1Gig Game card and want to play in Multiplayer Competition. i also have a Cable connection. i have 8 gigs of RAM now.. BUT I'll settle for XP32 to get things running again

ANTEC 900 Case.

ASUS Rampage Formula X48.

Intel Xeon 3110 3MHz Core2 Duo.

VISTA 64bit Home Premium.

Silent Knight2 CPU cooler.

8GB OCZ Reaper HPC DDR2 1400.

2x Western Digital Caviar 500GB HD RAID1.

VisionTec Radeon HD 3870 1 Gb.

Cosair 750 watt PSU

OPTI UPS Battery Back Up.

Ive looked around and have found some info, none I'm sure of..if someone has a link to good easy low technical instructions.. i will settle for changing the Hd's in the BIO's if necessary...i need some help, thanks

sorry to hear your typing ability is restricted, dont know what I would do if I lost my typing ability.

This might be a start....try dual booting windows xp and vista.

This guide is probably going to be beneficial for you because you have vista installed first and trying to dual boot with vista installed first is usually a pain!

EDIT: are you sure this is right Intel Xeon 3110 3MHz Core2 Duo. - 3Mhz?!
