Hey,

I put a partition on my 120GB HD, half and half. One half now has XP Pro, The other has Vista Ultimate. What I wanted to see is if anyone can think of an easy way to jump between the two. It gets a bit old having to reboot every time I want to switch to the other OS.

any ideas would be great.

Thanks,

Tyler
