can i have both windows XP and Windows 7 Beta OS together with an option to chose at start? (like XP and 2000)?

Yes, you can install TWO OS on your hard drive and can choose option whatever OS you want to log in.

Do the following things.

Install Windows XP on C: Drive

And Install Window 7 on another drive (Example D: drive)

Why we need to install OS on the different Drive?

As windows make a WINDOWS folder on default drive on C: so whenever you try to install another OS, it will be asking to override windows folder as you would be having already OS installed on your drive so whenever it ask choose another drive and install it. It will allow you to install both OS on your hard drive.

Yes it is possible to do that and I'm currently doing that.

When installing Windows 7 just click on Custom when the setup asks you that whether you want to upgrade.

After clicking custom select a hard disk drive other than your windows xp drive (usually C) and you are ready to go.

When windows 7 is installed the startup options will be Windows7 and Earlier Version of Windows

Is your pc Mac or computing device? (i imagine it truly is computing device appropriate?) once you've a MAC, operating domicile windows OS is fantastically elementary by Bootcamp. only backup all the driving force via Bootcamp, create a domicile windows partition (NTFS or FAT32) and deploy domicile windows likes on a computing device. once you've a computing device, it truly is really complicated in case you want to run MAC OS. First, you obviously could create a clean MAC partition. Then boot via a crack MAC OS DVD (Kalyway operating example) and deploy (really elementary steps). however, the hardest area is in the back of them. you may locate the perfect drivers on your hardware and it truly isn't any longer elementary in any respect because you may't use the drivers on domicile windows OS. For the account A & B: you may set up A on Xp, B on MAC or in spite of. however, those 2 debts can no longer search for suggestion from one yet another because they are operated via 2 distinct device. thankfully, you'll move the archives between them.
