Buying New PC - XP or Vista?
I installed Vista on my D partition a while back ago (C drive has XP) and now want to remove it. After following someone's instruction (http://www.istartedsomething. com/20060622/installing-and-uninstall-vista-beta-2-for-dual-boot-with-xp/), reboot, and now I can not access any data on my D partition anymore.

The Witcher -May I have some more crash please?
Upgraded from XP to Vista Business originally, then to Ultimate. I know, messy. Not messy if done properly, but easy to make a wrong sidestep. What I really meant was whether you are - or ever were - dual-booting multiple operating systems at the same time. Your mention of the boot manager triggered that question.
Hiding Vista volumes from XP (volsnap.sys issue revisited)
It only looks complicated if you are new to the registry or unclear about the issue. Someone well experienced in such things needs only the specifics of the registry key and would I multi-boot XP Pro x86, XP Pro x64, Vista x86, and Vista x64 so the example in the Greypaper is for more than just dual-booting.
Dual Boot Vista and XP
A client of mine who has dual boot keeps telling me how slow vista is, an a very fast 2 core machine with 2 gigs of ram... each time I go to his place for various things, he keeps telling me this. You see he can compare the 2 OS because I have set up a Dual Boot for him. He ends up using XP 99% of the time.
Hiding Vista volumes from XP (volsnap.sys issue revisited)
It can be done , but why not consider linux / xp dual boot and make some decisions then ?. Put simply vista sucks . Vista doesn't suck. It is quite good and when driver support And as for the vista vs linux driver issue. Well, I've been running 64 bit hardware for years, and vista still has issues there.

Next, I installed Vista Ultimate 64 on one of the partitions and had no problems at all with the installation, Vista and XP dual boot with no problems. I'm wondering what problems have others had, was I just lucky? -- XS11E, Killing all posts from Google Groups The Usenet Improvement Project:
Dual-boot XP-Vista
And, each partition has a "partition boot sector". Have you tested booting into Vista via a Win 98 MBR? From a post I made about a year ago: David: I did some testing to see if Vista does change the MBR. On a Vista/Win XP dual boot computer, I ran fdisk /mbr from a Win98 SE bootable floppy.

Setting up Vista Ultimate 64 bit do dual boot with XP Pro 32 bit
If I'm going to dual boot I'll go Linux and XP before I'll go XP and Vista. I think it was Kennedy who said, "We choose to go to Linux not because it's easy, I had really hard time installing IIS 7.0 on vista and vista seems to have lot of compatibility issues .So I decided to stick with XP for that purpose.
Buying a new PC: which OS to install first
The left side heat vent makes a useful handwarmer. ;-) It's a dual-boot but I rarely use the XP side (though the existence thereof means I can use ies4linux :-) ).

vista xp dual boot tip
The boot menu or dual boot option with two OS haven't shown up yet. I have both the OS (ie Vista and XP) installed on my hard drive. I think BIOS doesn't detect two Windows Vista during boot. Microsoft confirms this issue but maintains that it is a fundamental function of the way XP works and cannot be changed.

bootsect problem
No driver issues yet. While with 32-bit, the selection of XP over Vista can be argued, there is no such ambiguity with the 64-bit edition. Vista64 is a better supported OS. Taking the subject slightly OT I've been considering dual boot Vista for a while but didn't see any reason to bother yet.

I realize that the dual boot issue involves more than restore points, but http://support.teloep.org/vistaver.htm suggests that the two Vista Home products do not have "Shadow Copy", so there may be less dual boot issues with them.
