Re: reinstalling vista

If the second OS is Vista (you didn't say what it is), then just make sure and double check when installing that you select the C drive/partition, and Vista will take care of the rest (bootloader).

Wouldn't it have been easier (and a lot cheaper) to install the Chinese MUI language pack (through Windows Update), created an account for your mother, and then set her account to use the Chinese user interface?
