Why do we always face problems when we install dual operating systems in our PC or Laptop? The Problem is with operating system or with our PC?

This is a common problem with all users who have a dual operating systems in there PC. Remember one thing when you are using a PC or a laptop. Do not use a multiple windows operating system better go for a windows and a linux dual boot so that you may have a grip on open source too. But this may also create some problems.

I saw many technical problems like system crash, hard-disk problems, drivers problems, blue-tooth problems in laptops and etc. so what to do to avoid these problems.etter use a latest version of original windows rather than a pirated. B

If you are using already a dual boot in your hard disk say like windows XP and windows 7 and you want to remove any one of your desired operating system you will face a lot of confusion to remove them.

So how we remove a dual operating system from a computer. If we install windows xp on a windows 7 operating system we don’t have any much installation problems where as if you do that in a vice versa i mean if u install a windows7 on a windows xp we might face so problems as we are over riding a old version of operating system with a new version.
