I have a dual boot laptop, both run Windows.
Two hard drives, during boot, I choose which device to boot to....so no bootloader BS to deal with.

I have the one hard drive encrypted with TrueCrpyt, requires pre-boot authentication.

What i want to do is when I am logged into the other drive/system, be able to mount my encrypted hard drive.
I have installed TrueCrypt, but there are so many options, I am not sure what to do. And I am afraid of screwing something up.

Anyone know how to do this?
 
I don't have my computer set up that way so I can't test it, but it looks like there's an option you can check when mounting a volume that will get Truecrypt to do exactly what you want:

Mount partition using system encryption without pre-boot authentication

Check this option, if you need to mount a partition that is within the key scope of system encryption without pre-boot authentication. For example, if you need to mount a partition located on the encrypted system drive of another operating system that is not running.
