I had the beta of Windows 7 installed as the primary OS, I have some off-campus client I need to install that only works with 32-bit OS. I made a new a partition on a separate HD that my Windows was not on, and installed XP. Now I have no option to get to Windows 7. I have set up a couple dual boot things in the past and I followed the same steps this time. Even when I go into the boot setup in XP there is not an option for Windows 7. Maybe a glitch with the beta? Or did I miss something? Thanks

I was always under the impression that when installing multiple OS's you need to install the oldest OS first. That method has always worked for me so I've always done it that way so I could be wrong.

If your hard drives are Sata you can just unplug the XP one and keep the Win7 plugged in. Or just go into BIOs and change which HDD boots first.
