broknindarkagain Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 Just wondering, can you put x64 Home Premium on one partition and x86 Home Premium on another partition for dual boot? Or would you run into issues since they use the same boot loader and everything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaska94 Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 i think it will work perfectly :-)just install first vista then install secund on secund partition :-) they both use same Loader an you'll have no problem :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacesurfer Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 you can have as many vistas as you want. just create the partitions and install each one on the separate partitions sequentially. each time, a new entry will be added.only thing is each entry will look the same "Windows Vista". you may want to edit the descriptions with bcdedit, like "Vista Home x86" and "Vista Home x64".

jrf2027 Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 I've booted XP, Vista 32-bit, Vista 64-bit, and Ubuntu from the same machine before...I strongly recommend using grub or grub4dos if you plan on doing much dual-booting, though, because you can use it to hide the OS partitions from each other and leave the boot files for each OS intact too.
