    I was just wondering if anybody has successfully setup a dual boot on this laptop or others from the aspire series?

    I read on this forum that it can seem to cause problems on Acer Laptops.

    No problem, i just did it : you create a new partition, install vista on it from xp, at next boot, you'll be asked on which system you want to boot, that's all.
