Dual Boot WinXP Home & Pro

[Arcadian]

Hello,

my first post. How can I install both WinXP home & WinXP pro on the same machine so they can dualboot???

Thanks in advance

There are a number of resources on the web, have you googled it? Most are dealing with a different scenarios, but they give a guidline on how to config your boot.ini and all that jazz. I would go that route... most are for linux/windows coexisting, but most give the basics.

Just out of curiousity, why are you wanting to build a dual boot between 2khome and 2kpro? I can understand linux and pro or 98 and pro as dual boot systems... but if I were you, I would just use Pro and call it good. If you want to have a home version installed for programming testings, you could always use virtualPC 2004 or VMware and save yourself the hassle of a dual boot system.

I have to say that it sounds a bit retarted to have home and pro on the same machine, considering that home sux.... But I wouldn't do it, it's a headache more than anything. Maybe u wanna think bout this.

WinXP Home Blow A$$, and it's a waste of space on your harddrive.

i would agreed with DiscardME talks, if u plan to crack or modify do a linux/windows coexisting is better, even i also done that for my PCs. U'll find a lot more fun.
