Basically i have 2 hard drives in my system, 1 a 160GB Seagate and the other 1 is a 40gig WD
At the moment both have XP pro on them.
The only way to acccess each hard drive is to open the box, and take out the power to each one, so what i mean is: At the moment for example im in my 160GB hard drive.
To get into my 40GB id have to shut down, take the power lead out of this one and connect the power lead to the 40 GB.
If i connect both and boot up i get told to insert boot disk......Im assuming this is a A: xp bootable disk? if yes ive tried that and a moment later A:\ comes up and thats it...
Now.....
What i want to do is reformat both of my hard drives and have both connected and have an operating system on each one.
Could someone please guide me thru how to do this specifically...
-Should i reformat each one seperately (as in the one thats booting up as its obviously got power)
-Once everything will be set up and both will have an operating system on it and i boot up, how will i be able to choose which HD i want to go into? will there be a message prior a boot up asking wether i want to run the 40gig or 160gig?
Any help greatly appreciated
