This sort of a two pronged question so please bear with me.
I currently am running dual boot on one HDD
XP on C: and Vista X86 on D:
My boot loader is on D:
I want to put Vista X64 on D: and I would like to format D: first for a clean install.
I know the install will complain about the format as the boot loader is there.
Will the install disk allow me to format and keep the boot sector or will it just over write it?
If so how do I do it correctly?
Yes I know to use a second HDD but Im a little financially challenged currently.
My next question is what system protection progs work best with Vx64
I also need the address to the stand alone SP1 installer for Vx64
