In my laptop, Vista OS. I used Vista disk manager to create partition and format it and gave it a lable as drive . I can see the partition through Vista, but when I boot to WindowXP CD, I don’t see the second partition. Only, I see C: drive. One time I installed XP and wipped off Vista and replaced it with XP. Why I can’t see the second partition. I want to install XP with Vista. F.Y.I Vista is per-installed by HP and only I have a recovery DVD. Thanks

Dear Sir,
this upload inspires me to try dual boot.
Now I am having Windows 7 ultimate x64 bit on SSD
I also have the original XP x64 OS CD.
Can these both go together i.e Dual boot with these operating systems.
Please guide
Thanks and once more thanks in advance.
regards

If I dual boot, say, Windows 2000 and Windows 7, will I need to install anything extra to allow me to choose which to boot to when I start up my computer or will it allow me to choose either one when I start up my computer without additional steps?

u must put xp to boot up first. use the xp install disk to create the partition and put them in order.
the xp disk will ask if u wanna ddelete the partition
yes delete the 30 gig and then it will let u create a new partition then install on new highlighted partition then xp will be first to boot.
on xp pro or 7 u must turn off system restore or it will give u a boot error its a back up restore partition mostly on laptops an hp desktops good luck i just had the same problems thats how i know

How do you make it so when you hover over an icon of an open window on the taskbar it shows the contents of the window?? Mine only shows the title.

You need to first delete Win 7 because older OS can’t be installed after newer OS
May 21st, 2010 at 12:03 pm
hi, can i ask a question? if i am using a windows 7 at present, is it ok if ill just install the win. vista? or it needs first to reformat the win 7 then install first the vista,then after that install the win 7 again.
May 21st, 2010 at 12:03 pm
ok!!!! the computer is turned on and you are in the desk top, then you will insert the dvd of windows seven? then click install now?
is that correct? or you need to put the disk then restart?
May 21st, 2010 at 12:03 pm
when you insert the windows seven disk you need to restart the computer? then boot from disk then the windows seven window will apear?
May 21st, 2010 at 12:03 pm
@tipoomaster Yes
May 21st, 2010 at 12:03 pm
is it the same method if I have Windows 7 installed first?
May 21st, 2010 at 12:03 pm
hey i am not talking about win 7`s system files……i am talking about Vista`s system files…..even if i am running win 7, i dnt think that it will allow me to delete the Vista`s system files…..what say?????
May 21st, 2010 at 12:03 pm
@singhinthehouse your windows 7 system files has a separate file system of its own, , they are not interdependent so removing the system files is okay,
May 21st, 2010 at 12:03 pm
are u sure,it will allow me to delete that……coz these all are system files…..????
