Windows Vista Beta 2 Help

[Dieselbrad]

I just wanted to add you could just create a 5 gig partition on the same drive from the MMC and install Vista to that. When you boot the PC Windows Boot Loader will ask you to choose which Version of Windows you want to run.

Best off all. When you want to remove Vista you can just format that partition, and remove the Vista entry from the bootLoader using Msconfig.

If I understand Luciel correctly I think installing on 2 diff HDD will just prompt the Bios to choose the first one and boot? I never needed anything more than a Win/*nik combo so I'm not sure if Windows would detect the other install? Hmm

Let us know how it goes.

dual boot worked for me, well its more a dual boot -> normal dual boot..
windows vista, then a 'windows legacy' menu...
course, my vista has expired now, so i get a nice bsod when i run it, didn't affect the dual boot though..

just install vista in xpsp2, it'll allow u to upgrade or install clean, install clean gives the dual boot option... only prob is i dunno how to uninstall it now to install the beta rc2 heh but i'll figure that out when i got time
