I have a second hard drive installed on my computer as a slave drive. There is a version of windows xp on it and I was wondering if it is safe to delete it. The computer boots from the first drive which also has xp on it. I dont feel like backing up everything and reformatting and all that. So i was wondering if I could just delete it like I would any other file, or what the best way to go about this would be.
Thanks!

Yes, you could delete it.

A question though, is this a functional OS, meaning, can you boot your computer and choose either one, or is this an old installation from when you installed a new driver, perhaps?

Slightly different procedure is all -and then the question is what do you want to do with the second drive?

its just a extra hard drive that i took out of an old computer and put into the new one, i don't boot from the os or anything. I'm pretty sure its functional though, but I didnt set it up to like choose which os.
