Installing Vista And Xp

[dmethoxibit]

i installed windows vista on my comp, and its a lot more stable now than it was at the beggining, but its still buggy. but the games designed for vista work awesome like bioshock and quake wars. i cant play any xp games with it though, so ive decided to install xp pro as well. how do i do this? i know about partitioning but i dont wanna get myself into something i wont know how to finish. just incase heres my build:

BFG nForce 680 SLI mobo (1333mhz fsb)
Intel E6550 core duo @2.33 ghz (1333 mhz fsb)
Samsung 320 gb S-ATA HDD
OCZ Dual Channel 2 GB 800 mhz SLI-Ready RAM
Cooler Master 850 watt PSU
EVGA Geforce 8800 GT Superclocked Edition
cd-rw/dvd combo drive(dont know brand)
Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit OPSYS



I love Vista and it works lovely for me, except for old games(from like a month ago lol). the main thing i do is gaming. i want to know if its possible to have xp pro and vista on my comp and just boot with windows xp when i want to play older games. thank you.

Yeah you can install both on one Harddrive and use dual boot, so basically when you start your computer it will prompt you as to which one you want to go into.
