I can’t run 50% of my old XP programs like Pinnacle v10.

I’d love to be able to dual boot. But, will my XP media center disks (emachine) be able to supply drivers for my new Win 7 (eMachine)?

Thanks!

I installed XP it is working fine now, but the only HD that is hooked up is the one with XP. When I plug my vista into the slave IDE cable it wont even load XP anymore. So, I just go back into my XP. Here is the thing I already have vista installed on my first HD. So, what I am thinking is the BIOS has xp boot loader set up, and vista's boot loader is gone. Now I need to fix the vista boot loader, but what I am afraid of is that xp boot loader won't be there anymore so ill be back with vista and xp wont work. Any ideas? i know this is long and repetitive.

Thanks for the tips!

I have followed your tutorial and it worked like a charm, however having XP installed first, is there any chance that I can delete XP and using Vista as my permanent OS?
