In some cases, you might need to install two copies of the same Windows OS 
(e.g. two or more Windows XP copies, each having its own properties and 
application sets).  

The first way to do it is described above in section and implies a complete OS 
installation. 

The second way is simpler, operating system duplication using the Operating 
system copy feature described in detail in section 7.12 of this guide. The 
program will fully duplicate contents of Windows, Program Files and Documents 
and Settings folders, including all software installed.  you will be able to remove 
unneeded applications from your system. 

If you installed a new copy of Windows NT/2000/XP on your PC, the New 
Operating System Wizard will help you set up its properties when you run 
Boot menu of Acronis OS Selector for the first time.  

 

Having installed Windows 2000 or Windows XP, you can either save or replace 
already existing Windows versions. If you need to: 

  Update existing Windows version with a new copy of Windows 2000/XP, 

select  Yes, update existing operating system. In this case, the New 
Operating System Wizard will automatically determine Windows versions 
available for update.
