Dual Booting on a separate hard drive

I've just got a second hard drive and wanted to install Windows XP Media Center Edition on it.. just wondering how I go about doing it.

Got Windows XP Professional installed on my master hard drive, and I want Media Center Edition on my second (slave) drive. Wanted to be able to choose which one to boot up when I start my PC if possible.

Thanks in advance.
Ben.

You should be able to boot with the MCE CD and install it on the second drive. It should set up the dual boot menu automatically.
