I have successfully installed and ran Windows 7 from my Ext. HDD. Thanks for all the help I appreciate it very much. I do have other problems however, posted in their respective places on the forums. Check them out and see if you can help out.
no idea if this was posted but:


why would you install and OS on an external HDD that is a mistake, if you want 2 OS then partition your computers HDD and use your external for storage

Why is that a mistake?
I have always wondered this too, but I have never had the time to research this.

It's no mistake. Everything works perfectly fine. I've resolved the only driver issue I had. I'm in Windows 7 off my external hard drive. I have access to my main C drive. I can copy files and programs over. Everything is fine.
