Dual booting

Hi All
First post
Anyone here dual booting Vista 32bit & Vista 64 bit.
I am currently dual booting XP and Vista 32 bit and i am going to atemp to add Vista 64.

I believe Vista 64 is the best for modern hardware and future gaming and it is the only OS to utilise 4gb of ram and above.

Thanks

I'll probably be dual booting with XP Pro 32-bit with either Vista 32-bit or 64-bit. I don't see why anyone would want to dual-boot Vista 32-bit AND 64-bit?

because 16bit programs won't run on 64bit OS's, also some games won't run on vista 64bit OS

RE Dual Booting

Thanks Garth170

I use some freeware called easybcd, very easy to setup and use and i would highly recommend it to anybody wishing to customise the boot setup.
