Multiboot

I've a Segate 80 GB HDD partioned into two NTFS partitions with the primary
and bootable partion loaded with Windows XP Professional SP2 [This is the
C:]. I also have got a Samsung 40 GB HDDwith two partitions which has Windows
ME. Windows ME is installed on the logical partion. Both the partitions on
this 40 GB are in FAT 32. Now my question is: I have the 80 GB HDD connected
to Primary Master IDE and I want to connect the 40 GB. Where do I connect
it... possiblyt Primary Slave and also will Win XP detect it and if so what
about Win Me. Should I format it once I load XP from My Computer or format
via fdisk and all that? The real problem is that MS recommends installing win
me like system before win xp. So will me boot if i booted xp first or will xp
boot if i loaded me first.
