I wish to install another OS onto my computer, but keep this one. I have an extra hard drive, and can NOT reformat my master (due to certain reasons I do not wish to discuss). I want to be able to choose at start up which OS to boot, how can I install an OS into my slave and do this?

I'm thinking your 2nd HDD is installed and shows up in windows. Make sure your disc is an official copy of windows and not from an OEM (ex. Dell, HP) and pop it in your drive. Boot from the disc, if it doesn't automatically, then you will have to enter setup and change the boot order. Allow the setup files to load, and accept the agreement with f8, and then you should be able to select to repair or install. Select install and then choose your spare drive, delete the partition, create a partition, and format it with NTFS quick and install it and you should be in business.

Get Kubuntu.
