Yes you can. I have 5 hard drives and several installations of Windows that I can boot into (and a few that are no longer bootable). But no Vista versions yet though (trying to download it ). "Michael" wrote in message

It depends if you can have three hard drives... Make sure you have an IDE connector available or a SATA connector available depending on which you have. If you have no more space for hard drives, the only thing I can recommend doing is buying a very large hard drive and partition it into 2 partitions. Provided that your computer supports both SATA and IDE, I'd assume that you'd be fine. "Gary Mount" wrote in message
