Would I get some type of boot selection screen at startup? I think I
did before when I had different OS's installed but it's been long ago
and I don't recall for sure. I guess I can try it and see. All it will
cost is the time to do so.

This one may be a little out there, it's a thought I've had
several times but have never asked about. I don't suppose it's
possible to do two installs of the same OS, each on separate hard
drives?
I think I did this once with different versions of Windows but
never with the same one. I have two hard drives in my PC, each
500GB and one is basically just sitting there. I always had plans
to put a system image on it but never have.
All the talk that comes up every once in awhile about creating a
lean mean stripped down machine strictly for Flex and ham radio
use has caused the following what if.......
What if I installed my Windows 7 operating system on both drives
and was able to select between which drive booted the PC? Then I
could keep all my daily use , life with the PC stuff on one drive
and all my ham stuff on the other.
Follow me? It would be like having two PC's in one box if it's
even possible. I don't want to get in to a discussion of license
agreements and how Microthief might look at it, I just want to
know if it's even a feasible idea at this point.
No reason why it shouldn't work. And since it is the same hardware, no
need for 2nd license.
