=== UPDATE 03-17-20:
I received some very useful comments but they did not address the actual question. I re-state it for clarity:
I have two hard drives on my Win10 system. Both contain bootable, activated copies of Windows (Win10 and Win7).
How do I set up to dual boot from either?
=== END UPDATE
My development machine (Win7) recently died. I purchased a new Win10 machine and transplanted the C: drive from the Win7 machine to the new machine (as a 2nd hard drive). I now want to be able to dual-boot to either drive.
Most of the answers I've found involve new Windows installation(s) on one or both partitions. But I've already got two activated, bootable drives.
I have two questions:
- How can I set these up as a dual boot configuration?
- If I succeed, will I have a problem with "Authentic Windows" validation when I boot from the old Win7 drive?
