Dual Boot

I completely forgot to install XP. Instead i have Normal W7 64Bit for 24/7 use and a stripped down W7 on the 2nd partition, but i should have installed XP first.

I really don't want to go and install everything again after sorting out my files, tweaking, and copying things over from my old drive all day. How do i go about installing XP after W7?

I remember i did this last time last year and messed up my boot order so i couldn't get into Vista so had to reinstall it all again.

Just go ahead and install the XP and if any boot errors occur, as long as you can boot into one OS, you can install and use EasyBCD 1.7.2 to fix any boot errors that may happen.

Or better yet you could tri-boot with Ubuntu the grub boot loader works great also.
