So Windows Vista is launched tommorrow and I'm going to go out and get it although I still want to keep my XP installation. I have 2 HDDs. The first is 80GB and is the primary drive with XP. The second is 250GB. I want to install Vista onto the 250GB HDD, if I do this how will I dual boot. Also will it boot straight into Vista or continue booting into XP before I configure it?

Please advise.

Vista will replace the old boot menu with a new one. By default it will boot into Vista but you will have the option to boot into XP in the menu.
