Default Using NeoGrub to hide Vista partition in XP

I'm using EasyBCD to dual-boot between Windows Vista and XP. There's an
option in EasyBCD to install NeoGrub, which I understand has the ability to
hide the Windows Vista partition when booting into XP. Consequently, XP
would not then delete the Vista restore points.

The instructions for NeoGrub are quite brief, though, mostly just pointing
to the website for Grub. There's lots of information there, but it's above
my head, as if written solely for programmers. Is anyone using NeoGrub to
hide the Vista partition? If so, how easy is it to set up?
