Q1: with 64bit hardware, is there any good reason to run Vista x86?
Yes, drivers are still problematic for 64-bit Windows, if you have any
devices that are not supported on 64-bit Windows that are important to you,
but work fine with x86 Vista, then thats good reason not to go with Vista
x64. Also, certain applications will not run Vista x64, 16 bit applications
and applications that utilize 16 bit installers and uninstallers.
Q2: Can Vista x86 and x64 be installed in a dual boot on the same drive.(no
other OS will be installed. If so, how?
No, you can't dual boot Vista x86 or x64 on the same drive, both require
separate partitions, especially Vista x64 since there would be conflicts
between the Program Files x86 and Program Files x64 folder, its just
impossible.
