Boot.ini configurations

-

i have installed vista on home computer, need install windows 2003 server r2 on machine can ready 70-291 exam, going remove vista hdd , install windows 2003 server r2 on other installed disk (but get irritating because need keep swapping the hard disk each time wanted start other os) . know should install older windows os first install new os on disk or volume (but isn't possible without losing data, don't have vista disc any more), want know if possible edit boot.ini file on windows 2003 server os can multi boot correctly vista os, , need type boot.ini file correctly perform function (computer specs follow):

cpu- am3 amd althon 64bit x2 second edition 2.2ghz black edition

memory-4gb ddr3 1333mhz 

hard disk-x2 500gb sata 3.0gbps

ata cd/r/rw dvd/r/rw optical drive

nvidia geforce 9800 gddr3 1gb graphics card

800w psu

as you've got 4gb dualcore box 500gb of capacity why dont use virtual machine? free (virtual pc, or vmware workstation). much easier handle, espcially when need different or multiple systems up , running training.

 

good luck on the 70-291 :)
