Installing FSX and FS9 on same computer

Hi.   I have Win7 64-bit and FSX on one SSD. I was going to install FS9 on a second SSD. Should I also put a new install of Win 7 64-bit on the same drive as FS9 and basically have a dual-boot system or can I use the same install of Win7 for both FSX and FS9 without messing up FSX?   I have a Raptor for scenery, etc.

 

Thanks,

Jeff

You only need one installation of Windows 7.  It will handle both.
