    Hi, I have a very important question that I hope you can answer, I have my computer with XP working now...I have 2 partitions in my hard disk "C" and "D", in "C" I have XP installed and some other programs, in "D" I have a lot of data, music, personal info, etc; my question is: if I install Vista in "D" my information will be gone? Do I have to create other patition ("E", for example) and install Vista there?

    Hope you can help!

    I would recommend you buy a new HDD if possible. Because I don't think it is possible to install vista without formatting therefore leading you to lose your data on your D partition.
