Dual Boot two Windows 10 Pro issues
Hello
I just build a new pc and I decided to go for a dual boot (one will be used for work: music production/video editing and the other for casual stuff, gaming etc)
each of the two Windows 10 is installed in it's own hard drive (two different SSD drives)
The first issue is that if I choose the second windows OS option from the boot menu the system will restart
I was informed about this from the tech guy that build the pc. He also said that he tried the legacy boot menu but the same problem exists
I suppose I can live with that, if there is no solution (if someone can think of something let me know)
But I also have another issue. I have bought two licence keys of course, but when I completed the registration for the 1st of my two windows, the second one became registered too! I tried changing the product key for the second one but as you might expect the key got changed for the 1st one as well
Please note that the two windows installations have different product IDs
Can this be resolved? Is it "right" to use two different installations with one key? I am not "whining" about buying a second license, I just don't want to run into any possible activation problems in the future
Here are my specs:
I7-7700K
Asus Maximus IX Code
Hyperx 32gb ram
MSI 1060 Gaming X 6G
Samsung SM961 (1st windows 10 boot option)
Samsung 850 evo pro (2nd windows 10 boot option)
other hard drives for storage (2xWD Black 1tb,1 toshiba 3TB)
PSU EVGA 850 G3
Cryorig H5 Universal CPU cooler
