My computer wouldn't let me choose the drive to install XP on when i boot from the disk, thus causing the install to fail. so i'm wondering if someone could make a program that will install xp onto the partition of my choice while vista is operating. i want the wizard to work on a 64-version of vista and the version of xp i have on disk is pro 32 bit.

PS
why hasn't anyone thought of this before.
honestly why doesn't Microsoft have this service available online, Steam installs games directly on to the computer so why can't Microsoft.com install an OS directly onto a partition. they could make even more money this way.

I did create a partition. The installer on the xp disk did not recognize it or rather it didn't give the option of choosing a drive path before trying to install xp and then failed to do so.

I'm not sure what you mean but the comp came from hp with vista home premium 64 bit on it. It has some sort of raid bios. the xp instalation disk is pro 32 bit. it is not a restore disk as far as i know.

how do i make a f6 disk for a comp without a floppy drive?

The program in that article appears to be a make your own windows xp installation wizard wizard.

It might work but i need the time to use it.
