is it possible to dual boot with vista on the same drive and partion, if not
can anybody tell me how to move my windows system and all to just one drive
(i am using raid 0 right now , 2 drives, 120 + 160) without having to
reinstall it, xp home, when i break the raid to use two different drives?

and also if i wanted to, is it possible to create a dual boot of vista x64
and x32 on one drive with xp on the other?

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.

ok, i found the cpp site, but whats with the download page, it just says
thank you for your interest in the beta, or something like that?

i mean is microsoft really having some trouble keeping up with that demand
or are they just forcing us to buy the dvd kit?
