Create dual boot Win10 with existing WinXP installation
Hi,
I have seen posts that are partially related to my question, but do not answer all of my questions. Here the situation:
GOAL:
Create a dualboot system with a clean WIndows 10 installation on SSD while keeping my regular Windows XP for as long as I need it.
SITUATION
Monoboot system booting Windows XP from a regular HD. I already purchased an SSD for Windows 10, but need to install it.
QUESTION
Which steps (and in which order) should I take to make my goal as stated above achievable without (too much) hassle. I was advised by a friend to simply install the SSD, then start installing Windows 10 and everything would be ok as W10 would recognise the existing XP installation. As I know he did not speak from own experience, I'm hesitant, more so as the goal involves two separate bootable drives.
Any help/insight/advise is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
John
