    dual boot server 2003 on vista system

    hi,

    i hav a sytem with vista pre installed on it. I wanted to install sever 2003 on the same hard drive but another partition. i created the partition but once i finished the installation, system cannot locate vista any more. i know that vista got a different boot manger which causes the problem. But is there any way i could get around so that i can have server 2003 and vista on dual boot mode?

    thanks in advance,

    newbee

    you could use a os selctor like acronis os selector or Use the BCDEdit (Vista/Longhorn) utility or check out www.pro-networks.org
    for "Vista Boot Pro 3.3".
