Is there a way to make it so I can run XP and Windows 8 on the same machine? I'm ok at computers, but when it comes to formatting drives I get confused. I have two hard drives, one empty and other with XP installed in it. My machine is a little bit outdated but I think it's possible to run Windows 8. Would I have to make a new partition or could I just install it with no problems? How would it go? My second HDD, too, is kinda borked and crashed once (lost all files, but seems like I can use it nonetheless). So, is there a way for me to install W8 without wiping everything from the main drive with XP?
By the way, sorry if this is in the wrong section. I'm new here.
