Why I wont be using Vista again (Long)
Are you booting with a Live CD or are you dual booting? Or did you try Live CD and then dual boot? I tried the Ubuntu live CD to make sure it would work ok, Of course people aren't forced to buy Windows... but for many years now, it has been the most readily available option, and it is the one all their friends

Rebuilding World Problems
There is a lot of difference but it is not apparent to the user. W2K has the NT architecture. I guess by "desktops" you mean user setting or profiles, and while I never use multiple profiles You can also chose the option to keep W98SE and dual boot both of them but it's probably better to just do away with it.

Of course, and they are also not as well thought out for space savings on the desktop. An HP tower is passe and easy enough to manufacture cheaply. Now wait till Apple upgrades their iMac to the new Intel Quad core processors. The best part is that you can dual boot either OS X or Vista-64 and get the best of both

I went back to the web page to simulate buying it again and find that x64 is not an option. That's not defiinitve that it's not possible with this mobo, but suggests so I was going to ask questions about the drive 1/drive 2 discussion below but, if I can use the anytime upgrade, it won't be a dual-boot install.
Back to multi-booting the RAID - again. . .
Or if you are having problems with XP can you set the options in the NTLDR boot menu ? I could still get into XP. Replacing the win98 registry with scanreg got me back into 98, but I'm still faced I have been using F8 in the 98 boot, but I can't get into safe mode. The system.ini settings are not read in safe mode.

When I got to the option to format hard drive I decided not to format it. Therefore I canceled the process.

Now whenever I boot the computer by default it boots from vista.

Dual booting Vista Ultimate 64 bit with XP Pro
My ia64 machines use serial consoles, because syscons hasn't been ported (and I'm not planning to yet).

I used DISKPART, LIST VOLUME and SHRINK in the Vista Home Premium install process to create a Vista partition and keep XP Pro in a dual boot system.
