I think you need to install both OS's on the same Drive- Never dual boot myself, With the price of computers I use a different computer for Windows.
The Linux Mint Forum has a how-To on dual booting--Check that Out.
When dual booting with windows,Install Windows , Then Mint (Any Linux Dirtro) As windows will rewrite the MBR
