Can I load Vista in a dual boot config with XP alread being installed? Ive read a bunch on Vista being installed and then installing XP but can i do it the other day around?
 
yea, you've gotta install xp first, then vista. after you do that, you download vistabootpro and you can change the boot-up settings so that xp is default, along with the time-out settings. works like a charm!
 
I have XP installed now so what i would do is partition with partion magic and then i install vistaboot pro before i install vista? Will that keep all my XP stuff safe?
