Installing Windows XP on Vista
25 Apr, 2009, 9:55 am IST | by Sandeep Balachandran
Making Vista and Windows XP dual boot can be quite a pain, but not if you make use of the right tools.
|
With the majority of laptop and desktop manufacturers preloading their systems with Vista today, we are witnessing the end of the Windows XP era. Just like the extinction of previous operating systems, Windows XP has officially been laid to rest. The same will apply to Vista in the near future, but the march of time shouldn’t stop us from running whatever OS we want (as long as we own a legal licensed copy).  The problem here, as always, has been with the installation of an older operating system over a new one. In doing so, the existing bootloader is overwritten (in this case Vista's is overwritten by the older XP bootloader), making it impossible to boot into the newer OS. |
