I am in need to install a second WIN XP Pro in the E: PARTITION of the HDD that already has one of it installed in the partition C: but the OEM toshiba installation disk from a WIN XP PRo get me only the OPTION to RESTORE the original default system installed in all default settings ( the default partition is the C:). Please, help me. What to do to install more one OS in partition E: with THIS SAME INSTALLATION DISK without overwrite the OS that is already installed in the default C: partition?

I have the drive D: where is the OS installer setup.exe
I have the drive C: where is the first default OS Win Xp Pro
I have the drive E: that I would install the OS with the same OEM disk

I think in the DOS prompt COPY the setup.exe to E: and run it.
It is possible?
I trued write the DOS line but is difficult and I am afraid of overwrite the OS installed in C:

Could someone help me?
Do you need a true install for running graphics ( games ) apps or do you think you could get by with a virtual copy of itself runing. You can run multiple copies of the same OS with Virtual PC 2007 running a virtual copy of XP. You would be able to run the oem of that system in a virtual environment that is isolated from the original main non virtual os, and will be able to do anything pretty much except games and graphic intensive apps. Virtual PC 2007 can be downloaded for free at microsoft. Installation is easy and the creating of a virtual system is easy as WELL. You can have pretty much as many virtual systems running at the same time as your system resources can handle such as if you have 2GB of Ram, you could run about 4 copies of XP at the same time as 4 different computers, computer names, and IPs.Ok Dave
I will do it. I think that is the fast and good solution. Thank you
