Default installation issue

I forgot to mention that yes I paid for Vista since I didn't want the long
download time, and I like having the disks.

For your information:
all you need is an empty partition in order to install Vista...........it
will create the dual boot options.
The choice will come up when you boot.....Old OS or Vista

You actually paid for Vista???

I installed Norton Partition Magic w/ Boot Magic in order to partition my
drive to run dual OS between Winxp and Vista. Last night I was able to
switch
between the two using the Boot Magic Rescue Disk but now that doesn't
work. I
contacted Symantec and they said their product doesn't support Vista so I
can't use it to do what I'm trying to do. I'm becoming very frustrated
with
this whole thing. I like Vista and would like to use the OS I bought but
not
if it's going to be such a hassle.
