    My desktop came with Vista installed, but I downgraded to Windows XP, now I want to have Vista installed again. How do I dual boot? What are the steps?

    Step 2: Type "xp vista dual boot" into the search text box.
    Step 3: Click the "Search" button.
    Step 4: Follow one of the hundreds of dual boot guides.

    Enjoy!
