Maybe you can help me because I am not able to get what you obviously accomplished: I have Vista as only OS, on Drive C of course, and want to install XP as multiboot configuration additionally on drive D. If I try to install from the XP CD under Vista, it would not let me do that, and if I try to boot from the XP CD, I consistently get a blue screen. Any idea?

Thanks, Manfred
