    How to Install and Use TWO Separate Windows 11 installations on the same machine?


    I would like to install on either separate drives or partitions two separate instances of Windows 11 Pro on my PC, and be able to choose which one to load at startup. Are there best practices/guides for doing this? And how would activation of separate licenses which I assume are required work, since as I understand it the digital license is tied to the hardware? Thanks!

    :)

    Windows 7 wont install drivers

    i dont think anyone here understands what your asking either when its nearly a 90% english dominated Tech forum.
    Step 1
    reinstall windows from scratch
    Step 2
    install all drivers from the cd that came with the god damn motherboard *common sense*
    Step 3
    update windows
    Step 4
    install misc etc crap like flash java etc etc
    Step 5
    Install GPU drivers
    Step 6
    go back to using your pc without issue.

    +1

    If you having an issue installing a driver that worked before you formatted or wont install on a fresh build, sometimes this means hardware damage
