A friend of mine said that he has use the follow method himself. This
is totally untested by me.

You want to make sure all other drives that are attached are unplugged.
Then attach the drive you want to install windows on. Then install
windows on it using the MCT from MS. Once that drive is up and running
correctly. Then power off and reattach all other drives. Then when you
boot up....use F12 to select boot drive.

YMMV
