I am not sure if this will help you or not, but I figured I would mention it. We have an old HP Pavilion that came from the factory with Windows ME, which served okay, but all of a sudden uninstalled every device driver, which from the people I talked to, is not uncommon with that operating system. I decided from that day on, that I wanted to have two operating systems on the computer just in case. So I used a utility on the computer to repartition the hard drive. Even though the computer only has ONE REAL hard drive, I partitioned it to recognize it as TWO SEPARATE, but smaller hard drives. In this way, I was able to keep Windows ME on the C: drive, and then install Windows XP Professional Edition on the second partition, which is now called the D: drive. In this way, one operating system will not overwrite the other, and should one fail, the other will still operate to get the files off in an emergency. Otherwise, your plan sounds like it should work, but you never know with computers. . .
