Will it work with Vista?

In other words you needed permissions that were not set correctly. Yet without any new permissions and a simple install of both versions you should have ready access to files and folders while not having access to the protected system files and some folders under your user name.

One good blog on assigning permissions in Vista even you are the administrator or have adminstrative priviledges in your account is seen at http://paulstamatiou.com/2007/02/09/...a-permissions/

Since you tried dual booting XP along with Vista you need to take ownership of files and folders. The Microsoft article on that is seen at http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;308421

Whats the best way to tell which processes to shut down for optimum gaming performance in Vista?, like in XP, shut down all except for taskmgr. exe, explorer.exe,sys,local service, it seems like Vista is hungry, for services
