| Vista home premium 32bit | Re: Windows vista on External Hard disk Theoretically you can boot from any device that your BIOS allows in the boot sequence. A USB attached disk, however, will not qualify. Some people suggest that an eSata attached disk will do the trick. I have never tried that because I have no eSata cpability. But maybe someone has tried and can chyme in. |

| | Re: Windows vista on External Hard disk No it is not possible. It could be done in Windows XP with some hacking but that no longer works.
