you need to use vista x64 to use 4gigs or more. standard vista will stop at 3gigs or so.

In response to your second question, what error are you getting when trying to install XP?

the 4gigs wouldn't matter. it would act like vista, and only see 3gigs, give or take.
i think the proper way to dual boot xp and vista is to have xp installed first, and then install vista on a second partition.
to be safe, practice on a spare hard drive, so you don't lose anything important.

so if i take out 2 gigs of ram and leave the 2 gigs of ram in, xp should be able to install right? and then after i install it put the other 2 gigs of ram back into.
