i'd email you the setup file for it but its 81 mb so thats a no go.

I can't get XP to boot up now so am only using Vista at the moment, i know what to do to get XP to boot up but then it'll only boot up XP and won't give me a choice out of the 2.

yeah same here mate with the drive letters.

it was dual booting fine on Saturday when i first installed vista onto the 8 gig partition but since creating the 38 gig partition for it it won't. Might try deleting the partition and creating a new one and install it for a 4th time.
