View Single Post - New Build Dual Boot XP 32 and Vista 64

Hi all:

I'm building a new computer and with to have dual boot capabilities. I believe it would be best to install XP first and create separate partitions for XP and Vista. If so, what size should the partitions be? Can I create the partitions with the XP disk manager? Since I will be running raid, I suppose XP will ask to load the drivers. I'm thinking a flash drive would be best for this? Finally, I guess I can tweek the boot loader by installing EasyBCD?

Thanks ahead for any tips or help you might have.
