What I am saying is that don't rely on a system that is booting Vista / XP together.

I have 2 drives, 1 Vista, 1 XP - Most BIOS will allow you to F8 (before the OS starts) and select your boot device.

I also don't save any data on either OS devices, I save all data on an external 500GB and back this up to a file server every night.

Vista still sucks but the pro's outway the cons!
