Installing XP after vista? possible?

Soogs · 1 Dec 2007 at 13:34

Hey peeps,
does anyone know of a way i can dual boot vista and xp but by installing xp 2nd?

There is currently no other way i can do it because i only have pre-installed vista on my laptop and can only install it as a restore...

i have tried installing xp normally but then it just doesnt let vista run any more... is there a way to do this or am i doomed here?

many thanks,

Soogs

thanks but no good.

maybe i didnt explain properly. i dont have a vista install disk. i bought a sony n38 when they were goin cheap so i didnt get any disks with the package... only the hdd install files.

thanks though mate

i dont think i know anyone who has vista.
i will email sony at some point to get the disks i hope

eXor: they are on the same physical disk but on seperate partitions so thats not the problem.

i can aquire vista ultimate just to use the repair tool but will it work with the pro version of vista?

thanks again
