ScienceDaily (June 10, 2008) — Biometrics is commonly associated retinal scans, iris recognition and DNA databases, but researchers in India are working on another form of biometrics that could allow law enforcement agencies and airport security to recognize suspects based on the way they were, their characteristic gait. The team has revealed details of a comprehensive framework for gait recognition by computer.

Here are the things you'll need

1. Acronis Disk Director ( I'll use it as ADD)
2. Bootable CD/DVD of Linux/Windows/Os X 10.4.8/9 with SSE 2 or 3 and PPF 2 or 3
3. A hard drive with about 30gigs freespace or so.
4. And don't forget to back up your data / which means i won't be responsible for anything lost in the process and damage caused to your PC.

Step 1.

Create 3 partitions with 10gigs each one for each OS.
Install windows Xp as you usually do on the first partion of your hard drive.
after finishing the XP installation, boot into windows and install ADD.

Step 2.
