    I have windows 7 64bit installed on my computer (NTFS).
    I wish to hide this installation and create a "decoy" windows 7:

    When the computer boots up, it will boot to this new "decoy" win 7.
    If, on the other hand, when the computer boot up, I will insert a USB driver with a loader - it will load up a password screen in which after writing the correct one it will open the existing, hidden win 7.

    I looked at DiskCryptor but I was only able to password protect the default OS.
    Is it possible to do such thing?

    Thanks!

    This is exactly what a modified install of the TrueCrypt Hidden OS will do. Search around.
