Vista dual boot

[Michael Jennings]

I read a review by a Mac guy who tried switching to Vista. He liked it,
but decided to go back to Mac because it vented to the side, not down.
I guess if you'd burned the Vista recovery DVDs before you installed
Windows XP, you wouldn't be stuck waiting for them to be delivered.

I think Windows is rougher than Mac. It isn't as gentle and considerate.
Windows seems to be a better value to most - more people use it, but
you need to be more guarded because of that. Why hide real email:

I had the same problem, and after reinstalling the boot manager with bootpro,
I have the option to boot to XP, but it fails, says it is missing /ntldr. I
repaired the startup with the Vista dvd, but still get the same message. The
Bootpro forums all state this is because of a rogue legacy entry, but there
is no rogue. Any suggestions?

i have xp running on my second hd (D) vista on C,so many probs on vista wish it was the other way round btw you know running dual boot you will not have system

restore on vista ,found this out to my cost , beware.
