Is Vista parallel install possible.

Hello.
I had Vista installed on my PC. Due to the fact that I was unable to install
VS2008, I needed to get another fresh system up and running. This is when I
made a mistake installing another instance of Vista on another partition.
Installation went well, but as I should have expected, no boot menu appeared
to choose between two instances of Vista? So now I am only able to boot to
the new installed one, and can't get to the old one. It is still there on
another partition. Please assist if possible. Thank you.

Thanks God, VistaBootPro did it.

Still there is an natural way to do it, VistaBootPro just adds entries or
runs some BCDEdit.exe or something with a scpecial parameters. Please provide
with the link where I can read about how could I hae solved my problem
manually. Thank you.

You're welcome. I, too was curious about the commands, and the BCDEdit
Commands document was as complete a list as I could find on the internet.
I'm sure this will change over time.
