2 hard drives, 2 users

by s_q_u_i_r_k . Updated 19 years, 2 months ago

Ok, My sisters pc blows chunks… mine is teh rox. ok enough internet ebonics… anyway, I took her hard drive out of her pc and put it in mine. That way she can use a pc that doesn’t suck. Here’s my issue, how can I set it up so that when she logs in it gives her the same profile/settings she had on her pc?

Preferably also limiting her from accessing my HD. It’s gotta be possible, it’s a freakin computer ya know…

only thoughts I have come up with are: creating a batch file that asks up start up which login will be used or automatically chooses according to login which hard drive to boot from allowing her to use her stuff unchanged and me as well..

I don’t know how to go about making this batch file… and the other thing is, that with her HD in my pc her hard drive is now F:\ instead of C:\ therefore preventing shortcuts from pointing to the right place. I’m sure im not the first person to wanna do this kind of thing so there has to be a way to do it… I can’t even figure out where to begin looking for such a method though, so I came here.

Please help if you can and (not to be rude) if you can’t help, please don’t post/flame on how stupid you may think this is thanks.
