It's easy... If your Windows XP CD is bootable, set up your BIOS to boot from your
CD drive and on the first dialogue box click on advance option and clic on the option
that let you select the drive or partition you want to use to install Win XP.(prepare
a partition to receive xp ahead of time, 1.5 gig minimum, I suggest 5 gig for full
confort) If your CD isn't bootable do it from windows explorer (select the CD drive
with your Win XP cd). Windows XP will install a boot manager in your MBR (master
boot record). Your partition where your installing XP doesn't need to be primary,
logical partition will still be good since xp is a second o/s. Hoping this help !

When you are setting up winxp for the first time, it will look for previous versions
of windows. Tell the computer what drive you want it to go on after setup has started.
You will get a boot menu, Windows XP or Microsoft Windows. Choose one and you will
boot into it. Jon
