Default Help Creating Dual Boot System With XP Installed

Hi,

I have got XP as my main os on my machine but I have just installed a trial key version of Windows Server 2008 onto the 2nd hard drive that I have. The problem I has is that I have no way of creating a dual boot system.

I have tried doing something like this through vista in the past and it was a case of downloading vista boot pro software that done all the hard work for me. There is nothing for XP that works similar to this so I guess I am stuck to try and do it the old fashioned way.

can anyone help me please?

P.S the disk for Windows Server is not like the Vista one where it fixes the MBR but still lets you select a legacy version of windows.

Thanks

Scott
