Default Dual Operating System


I have a toshiba laptop with vista home premium preinstalled on it. I would
like to install windows 2003 or Xp as another os. I have already created
second partition. I tried installing win2003 with bootable cd but after it
installed on other partitioned space, after reboot it did not gave me the
option of selecting operating system. Pls. help.

The title of the article refers to XP but the same principle applies with
Windows 2003
