I've been trying to install from my Windows XP cd onto my laptop but there seems to be an error:

Blue screen comes up with Technical Information:

...........

Old versions of Windows must be installed FIRST, before new versions of Windows.

Never reverse, or else nothing will work. I think you are my live sample.

vista comes with your com?

deathscythe99 SG

I'm ur live sample? Shocked

Anyway I managed to get XP in now...the problem is...VISTA is like missing. Laughing

Computer loads into XP without looking for Vista, even though XP is in D:/ drive o.O

deathscythe99 SG

Yes.

Vista comes with the computer.

Ya... my live sample. I think if somebody wants to dual boot, I will show this thread... whatever that can go wrong. Laughing

I think your Vista may be corrupted...

deathscythe99 SG

Now my vista cant load...my XP loads from D (another pri partition) drive.

I've got C (Vista), D (XP), E (Nothing), F(DVD-RW)

Laughing

Another most important thing to note is to Parition properly first before installing XP.

My XP got corrupted cos I had to mess ard to retrieve about 30GB of unallocated HDD. Laughing
