Dual Boot

Hi. I have 2 hard drives. C: is a 40 gb ntfs and has my default operating
system
Windowsxp Home Edition. D: is a 12 gb fat.
The other day I was unable to start windows caused by I believe third-
party software that I might have miss-configured. Anyway, when I
finally got back up and running I began considering installing xp on D: in
case this happens again. I have a few questions.
Is this a good thing to do??
Do I need to install my ant-virus and firewall software on that drive even
though
this software is on C:??
Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,
James
