VistaBootPro may be able to sort it out for you.
depends on where/how you installed the second os.
if you did not change the install to location it probably wiped out the 64 bit version.
VPC2007 would not help at this point as it does not support 64 bit guests.
what you could do is to start over, install the 64 bit version.\
install VPC2007 and then install the 32 bit version as a guest under VPC2007.

You could try the "virtual machine" from microsoft, which is available on
Microsoft.com.
Install it on windows XP, and run any verion of windows you please, without
a second boot.
let me know how it works
