chasdrury Posted September 21, 2007 Report Share Posted September 21, 2007 A guy I know has got a new Mesh PC with Vista on it, but wants a dual boot system with XP on it too. I have been doing some reading, and although it's possible to install XP after vista it can go horribly wrong. Has anyone got any 1st hand experience of trying to do this?

Hopsta Posted September 21, 2007 Report Share Posted September 21, 2007 I've always dual booted but with seperate partitions for each OS, do it on the same one at your own peril! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasdrury Posted September 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2007 Ah - yeah, I meant to say it will beon 2 partitions. But if you put XP on second, it overwrites the bootloader for Vista, which being newer breaks it all! Chaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
