The reason I did it this way was incase one OS got hosed, I didn't risk the loss of the other OS and data.

Ooooooooh, wasn' thinking of that option since my existing MOBD didn't support the boot drive selection in BIOS. My new MOBD is SATA & will do it.

Thanks Erad I will do just as you described.
