if you installed XP first and that drive was bootable before Vista, then it
will be easy. actually it is easy no matter... insert your XP install CD and
boot from it. once booted and you are at the install screen, choose "R" for
repair. this will put you into C: prompt then type "fixboot" then type "exit"
and the system will reboot. thats it you are done.
now you can select the drive from CMOS set up or from BOOT MENU if you have
it. if this did not work post with more info as to how you configured the
system originaly and such so peole here can get a better idea of what you
have.
