Guys,
Any advice on what software to use to dual boot vista with XP. I have tried PM8 and disc director but both with no joy.

Any advice would be much appreciated

Cheers

you shouldnt need any software
install XP first then install Vista and it should setup a duelboot screen at startup and you just pick which OS you want to boot in too

tried that and it didn't work. maybe i was doing it wrong. should i install xp first with a partition on c: and then install vista on the new partition?

cheers for the reply

Yes, Install XP first on one partition, then install vista afterwards, on a different partition.

Edit: just make sure you dont accidentally format the wrong partition.
