Windows partition?

[Marvin Kosmal]

It has been a long time since I installed XP,

But, as I remember the only option I had at that time was the first hard drive..

Good luck with that..

You could check to see if you can change the boot disk in BIOS..

If so, you could select Operating System that way??

YMMV
