You can do it and it works. I did it some months ago on my A31p. I installed to a second drive in the left hand UltraBay and edited the
Win XP boot.ini to give me choice of which OS to load.
Sound works.
The video card gives you a display at full native resolution BUT there
is (or at least was) no support for all the advanced features of the FireGL chip.
Wireless using the inbuilt wireless card does not work and I don't think ever will, apparently some 3rd party wireless adapters can be made to work.
You have to use the maxxus patches to get around the SSE2 cpu stuff.
I played around with it for awhile then got rid of it, I think it's more a techie thing to do that to create an OS that really works for you.
