The basis of this is that I have an Audiophile 2496 sound card and the
driver does not really support MCE. Of course the basic way to go
about this would be to wipe the C drive clean and just install XP
(non-MCE). But the question is, how well does XP do with more than
one copy of itself
If you are asking, how will XP do with a dual XP boot, then the
answer is fine. I have been installing duplicate OS installs since
NT4. I put the system files on C and XP1 and XP2 on D and E. Windows
handles the dual boot just fine. It is a very useful setup for a
number of reasons. And there
Thanks for the info, I'll just have to see how many of my applications
make it over, I know that some may and others probably won't.
Probably the best bet would be a clean wipe but somehow I alway manage
to wipe out something I wanted to keep

Any third party apps will have to be reinstalled.

Of course, you don't share applications. The whole idea is to have
two separate installs that share nothing. However, a number of simple
utilities and programs will run just fine without a reinstall.
