I have two separate internal hard drives installed, each with XP Media Center OS installed.
I am looking for a tutorial or a free program that allows me the option to choose during computer start up, which hard drive to boot from.
To the best of my knowledge, Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 does not work with XP Media Center. Also, I am not looking for a Virtual PC environment... my intention is to use each hard drive for a different user
Any suggestions would be appreciated
