Thanks for the replies! However, I am getting conflicting responses! So do
I still lose my restore points in Vista every time I boot into XP with the
VistaBootPro or not?

I know I could try, but still would like to know ahead, because if I still
would lose restore points in Vista with the bootloader of VistaBootPro, there
is NO reason for me to even try that! As I've said, I am currently using
Vista's built-in bootloader, dual booting XP and Vista! The drawback, of
course, is that I am losing the restore points in Vista every time I boot
into XP!

Another thing I need to clafiry is that I do not have multiple HD's in my
system. I only have a single hard drive with multiple partitions on it!

Would like to hear more info on this!

Thanks again to those who replied!
