I dual-boot, after a fashion. Initially I did this to test out Windows XP64 because it has a lot of potential benefits for my work. It's also nice to have a "backup" system should the worst happen and my main Windows 2000 OS becomes corrupted. Since I haven't installed or run XP on any of my own machines until this year, I was cautious and made sure to install it on a spare HDD. Although it's more cumbersome, I select which OS to boot into by altering the boot-priority in the BIOS. It doesn't bother me to do it this way, and I prefer it that the two OSs remain completely independant from one another. Eventually when I can afford it, i'll install my main apps onto the XP installation, and then ghost it onto a Raptor X or something similarly fast (the current drive it's on is painfully slow).
Jam it back in, in the dark.  |
