Default ipod doesn't sync with Vista, but does with XP

The real problem with dual booting with XP is that you lose all your Vista
shadow copies, restore points, backups, etc., every time you boot into XP.

Before my vista partition screwed up I had so many problems with itunes
and my ipod, either installing itunes or gettin my ipod to work. A way
around it is resize your vista partition and install xp or linux on a
small partition(eg 2 gb), as you will still be able to access your
vista partition and your itunes folder. But watch out as installin xp
after a vista install can screw you vista bootloader/bcd up as I
learned 'here' (http://forums.techarena.in/showthread.php?t=887189)
unless done properly.
