How do I do a Dual Boot with XP and Vista? I just want to run Vista Home Basic<I heard it doesn't slow down your PC like premium or ultimate does. I will be doing this to the rig in the sig. When I put the first OS on, I will half the HD partition space to format, right? After that OS is installed, I install the second one and just use the leftover HD space, right?

Thanks guys
 
Hi
You have to create at least 2 partition (I would create 3, one for Vista, 1 for XP and 1 for my documents). First install XP, after finishing that, put Vista CD in. While starting installation of a Vista, do not upgrade XP, but make a fresh install to a second partition. And the third partition is useful for both XP and Vista so you can share your documents between them.
