    dual boot Vista / XP

    Hello all, I intend to install Vista and XP in dual boot. Currently I have vista and I recently learned that if I install XP after Vista, the bootloader to erase Xp to vista so I can no longer boot on Vista. I'd like to know how to reinstall the bootloader vista once XP install.

    Thank you in advance

    Re: dual boot Vista / XP

    Hi, you have two options:

    If you have the Vista DVD, you can start over and start putting the repair of Vista bootloader. You'll then have to add the necessary entry in the BCD to boot to XP.

    Once XP installed, you can use the software EasyBCD which can set the BCD and quite simply put the bootloader of Vista.
