XP Pro and Home dual booting

ok, i have one hard drive with xp pro already on it, and another with home already installed on it, both are connected to my computer however no matter how i set boot priority in the bios it always boots the hard drive with xp pro unless i disconnect it. What i want to know is: how can i choose at startup which hard drive/os to boot?

thanks for helping,

-Jeff

You should see both Operating Systems listed in the Drop Down Box
Make sure the 2 boxes below it are checked

You may then need to edit the Boot.ini file ... there is a button there
to do manually do that ... add another line in the Boot file to point to
the other Operating System and Drive it is on

However, that said, why two of basically the same OS ? ?
Dump XP Home and just keep XP Pro ... Pro has all the features
of Home and some features that are specific to Pro
