    Can anyone tell me whether it is all right for me to install another os on the same pc. My problem is that i plan to migrate to the new os but i want to keep the old os as a backup in case the new one fail. Here is an image of the disk drive in partiton magic.

After i install xp pro do i automatically start in pro or home? How do i switch between the two os.
