| Dual boot vista with server 2008 Hi all, I have a laptop with Vista Business preinstalled. I have 116 GB unallocated space on the HD on which I wish to install Server 2008 64 bit edition. Will there be an issue with booting Vista after I install Server 2008 (ie am I installing them the correct way round - Vista first, then Server 2008)? Regards, Anastas      |

| Re: Dual boot vista with server 2008 It worked: install Vista first, then W2K8. Finding drivers for W2K8 is another matter...

| Re: Dual boot vista with server 2008 Yup, it should work. The rule of thumb is to install the older operating system first then the newer.
