    Hey guys!

    I have Windows Vista on my laptop. I have tried to get rid of it before by formatting my HDD but Gateway recovery appeared on every start up and said that the version installed is different than the one that came with the laptop.

    I used to like Vista but there are way too many complications and annoyances that I have with it including wireless in hotspot areas that XP has no problem connecting to.

    Can someone help me with dual booting Windows 7 and Windows XP? That'd be great, thank you =)

    delete both paritions of your hard drive as that will get rid of the recovery partition & windows partition.
