Dual Boot made simple

Are you willing to open up your computer?

I'm assuming both OS harddrives are in bootable condition.

What you want to do is change the boot order of the harddrives.

SATA: Swap the cables to the Windows 7 and the OS X harddrives (AT ONE END ONLY).
ATA: Reverse the master/slave settings. Either reverse the positions on the cable, or set the jumpers to force Master and Slave. If both are on two cables, see SATA

1 SATA/1 ATA: Annoying, but there HAS to be a way to change the boot order in your BIOS. Mine is kinda hidden and easy to miss.

Once OS X is the boot drive, you can install Chameleon
