If both drives have windows on they'll mess up. Dont know why, they did when I tried it on my dad's.

Not sure on how to get round it, I presume deleting the autoexec files on one disk through DOS would work, or messing with the BIOS till it knows which to boot.

Sorry I cant be more helpful, but at least you know what the problem is now..
