Here we can discuss about how to dual boot Vista and XP. I have done this using EasyBCD and Vistaboot Pro but had some deficulty with my SATA drive and raid settings but finaly managed to get it working.
Please share your experiance, tricks, tips highly appreciated.

If you know any easy way to do this by typing a command or editing a system files, without having to run EasyBcd, you are the man :D ;)

P.S.
Wasn't intended this to be spam :)

you know some guys have this USB DVB digital tv card works only with XP no drivers for vista yet. and many other devices does not compatible. all the new laptops comes with vista so they want them devices to work on their new laptop so they want both OS system. Linux vista xp 2000 ubuntu everything you can run under one processor. nice thing to experiment

just simple as that

hope u can understand
