Isolating encrypted and unecnrypted Windows installations and protecting the boot loader

I want to use my PC both for gaming and for stuff like keeping cryptocurrency wallets, online banking, etc. I need to install games as admin but of course I don't want them to be able to access my wallets data in any way even if they have keyloggers. Also games require full performance. The only way I see to achieve this is to have 2 Windows installations in my boot configuration:

  1. Unencrypted Windows for games
  2. Encrypted Windows with cryptowallets

The security issue here is that apps running in unencrypted windows can alter VC boot loader to get my password. Is there a way to prevent it? Are there any other issues?

I know about cold storage wallets, please don't suggest them.
