Dual System?
I heard from an IT guy that comes around the Office occasionally that I could add a hard drive to my computer Change the set-up at the power-up to that drive, load Windows XP & XP software then whenever I started my Computer press the F key assigned and run either Vista or XP. Is he getting a laff at my expense or is this possible???

Thanks
Boomeron

Hi Boomeron,

indeed it is true. There is an excellent article on it here... Install Windows XP in a Dual Boot with Pre-installed Windows Vista ,

have a good read and you will know as much as they on the subject of having Vista and then putting XP on it and having a startup menu that lets you select between both...

regards

Steve
