Hey all, need some help with my partitoning situation.

Here is the story: I originally had XP but wanted to dual boot with Vista, so I did.

Now I want to get rid of XP.

However, the XP partiton remains the primary partiton, and if I format it, I can nolonger boot into windows and the MBR has to be recovered, but doing this brings back my old partiton as primary, so I need to ask...

How can I change the primary partiton?
 
I have been trying Acronis yes, but there seems to be no way to change a primary partiton to a logical one and vice versa
 
gah damnit. Didn't want it to go down to that. Oh well.

If the boot info is on the XP drive, why do I get the Vista Boot menu instead of the XP one, out of intrest?
