    I have a ar51su laptop with vista ultimate. Want to put a dual boot on with xp pro. I have a oem version to go on it. I can partition the hard drive and install the cd. after the restart of the machine xp starts to load but then when it comes to selecting the partition it says it can not find it.

    I assume it is something to do with 2 250gb hd's running as one 500gb but is there a way around it?

    Cheers
