Part 4 of Paul Thurrott's Windows Vista Installation Super Guide:
In the previous part of this Windows Vista Installation Super Guide, we looked at how you might clean install Windows Vista on a new or used PC, wiping out whatever information and data might be on the hard drive. In this fourth part of the series, we will examine a related activity, and one that will be of particular interest to anyone that's either nervous that Vista won't meet their expectations or are already aware that Vista isn't yet compatible with a particular hardware device or software application they still occasionally need to know. This installation scenario, which I'm calling dual boot, is technically multi-boot, because you can actually install an arbitrary number of operating systems on your PC if you so choose. However, I feel that dual boot is the most popular of the multi-boot setups, and thus it's the one we're going to cover here.
