I want to install 7 on my HP, but want to keep Vista.. Dual boot?
- I have a HP Pavilion HDX9300 Notebook, running Vista Home Premium. I am going to install 7 on it, but would like to keep Vista aswell. Is it possible to Dual-Boot them? Also i have some applications that are no longer available and i was told i will lose them on install of 7. Help?edit: Both OSes will be 64bit

- Hi Heritic Demon,
Yes, you can install Windows7 on diffrent drive, so that you will not loose any applications and you will have dual-boot.

We need to create another Partition on Hard Drive.
