Hello.
I am using a PC with two hard drives. One uses Linux Mint and the other Windows 7 (this is the one from which the computer boots unless I enter the BIOS and choose to boot from the one containing Linux). I have an 8GB RAM and a 32-bit version of Windows 7 Ultimate which can only use 4GB, so I need to switch to the 64-bit version in order to use the full 8GB.
Installing Windows would only affect one of the hard drives, right? The other one would still run Linux? Or should I disconnect the drive that uses Linux when installing Windows in order to keep it?
Thanks for your help!
