So thanks to this and other forums I was able to complete a duel boot situation - I've never done that before.
I initially Installed Vista Ultimate over XP-Pro a few months ago and haven't liked the way it performed.
So, I reconfigured my system back to factory specs and XP-Pro.
Partitioned C: to a 3rd drive (V:) for Vista.
Installed Vista on that drive.
Everything worked fine.
Question is - I only have my Lenovo software, drivers, managers, etc. on the "first" XP-Pro side (C:) and my Vista partition has none (kinda nice actually... But I need the Lenovo stuff).
How do I get Lenovo over to the Vista partition?
Is there a way to share certain programs (Norton) on both partitions without having to intall them on each partion??
Thanks!
