Dual-Boot Issue; XP Pro ---> Vista
I'm currently running XP Pro on a laptop and I got a copy of Vista Business
from my school. What I did to install it was create an extended partition on
my hard drive and create a new V: partition. When I booted to the Vista dvd
and installed it, things went fine until it tries to restart and boot up
Vista. Right after choosing Vista from the boot list I get a screen that
says:

Keeps asking for my administrator password?
Hi all,
My new Dell all of a sudden started asking for my
administrator account password periodically. I am
using Vista Home Premium. I don't know what I
did to trigger this activity since it didn't do it just
after I get it several weeks ago.
Any ideas?
thanks,
charles......

Vista disappears from boot loader. How to bring it back?
I installed XP in a separate partition on my new laptop that initially
had Vista Business installed. I haven't touched Vista partition. It
was on C: drive. My XP is on D: drive. When I start my computer, I am
directly taken to XP. When I press F8 during boot-up, I do not see
Vista on the bootloader list. Is it possible to bring it back on the
bootloader so that I can still use it?
And also...

vista? I am just wondering as I would like a clean install and am afraid I
cannot get that with the upgrade? Thanks in advance!...

Uninstallation & reinstallation on a different machine.
I recently installed Vista on a home theater PC, and since installation have
had numerous problems during video playback that I never had using XP. I'm
certain it must be driver incompatibility, but I do not wish to upgrade
hardware. What I'd like to do is reinstall XP on that system. That's the easy
part. Here's the real question...

Documents transferred over do not show in "my documents" folder
My friend copied and transferred all his files from his old XP Pro
computer under c:\documents and settings\jdoe\my documents into the
new computer that's got Vista on it to: c:\users\jdoe\ however, they
don't show up. You can "search" for them & find them and you can open
and edit them. But you can't save them. Does anyone have any ideas
for me? We've tried 'un-hiding" hidden folders yet ...
