Hi Everyone,

Wishing all a happy new year...

I have HP Pavilion dv9205TX laptop with the following configuration:
64-bit core2duo 2GHz processor, 2G RAM, 2X160G HDD, 64-bit Vista Ultimate on the 1st hard drive (C: )

I want to install 32-bit Win XP PRO SP3 on the 2nd hard drive (D: )

I wanted to know if this is a straight forward installation by choosing the drive letter D: during the installation or do I still need to use the software like EasyBCD or VistaBootPro? Which of these softwares will make my work easy?

Will it be easy to format the hard drive, install 32-bit XP on the 2nd hard drive(D: ) and then proceed with installing 64-bit vista on the 1st hard drive(C: ) (or) the other way around?

Thank you in advance for your valuable input.

I wish you all a great year ahead!!

Cheers,
Mahesh
