can I do this

[bonehead]

Can I partition the hard drive and install xp again in the new partition and dual boot ie: boot up screen...xp1 xp2.
Pick xp1 for work xp 2 for home.Have the work domain setup on one and the workgroup on the other.Will this work?.
WouldI have to re-activate xp if I did this...it's the same laptop?
Thanks again for any help.

Sure, you can do that. It's just a simple dual boot. Wouldn't it be easier to just create a second user account and use fast user switching instead? Also, I'm sure you would have to activate again, but that would likely go through without a hitch.
