I have a Dell Poweredge that has 2 (40GB) HDD in it, one HDD is running Server 2003. I was wondering if I could install Windows7 on the second HDD. Would there be any conflict or malfunctioning of OS? Please, help with any advice or tips you may have.
Cheers

The newer OS should recognize the older one and configure the installation appropriately. I'd do a full backup just to be safe though. -
