    dual bootings piss easy;

    xp first
    create a 2nd partition, make it a primary
    boot to the other OS
    install it on that partition and it's boot manager should sort it out

    nah, it wasnt that simple - but still easy enough like.

    Create Bootable ISO of XP with inserted SATA drivers
    Install XP
    Install Drivers Etc
    reboot with Vista DVD
    Repair startup
    Reboot with Vista
    Change bootloader settings with easy BCD.

    i wish i'd done it sooner
    :cry:
