Hi
I have two IDE Disk 0 and Disk 1. Disk 0 is basic and Disk 1 is dynamic.I have installed windows xp professional on Disk 0. I have created two simple volumes and one extended volume in Disk 1(Dynamic).System and boot partitions are in Disk 0(Basic).
Now i want to install windows 2003 standard edition on dynamic volume. is it possible ???
Please let me know . thanks in advance to all.

Yes, the install will put the necessary boot files in the same boot partition (on Disk0) but you can install the system files in either of the simple volumes on Disk1. You will have a dual-booting system between WinXP and Win2K3.

Hope this helps!
