    just a heads up on the game thingie.. even though you install xp on one drive, and 7 on another and games on a third you can acces the games but your savegames will be stored deep within the heart of you current running install so you will have to copy game date everytime you play something. so keep games on on install.
    is that a 120.9 raddy on your case, or are you just happy to see me?

    thanks for the info.

    on another topic, I used gparted live to partition my drive, left 80GB for vista and 80GB for w7. I installed vista ultimate 32-bit, everything works fine. I installed w7, but it wont fully install. seems theres an issue with its resolution. I had this happen before as well.

    it installed fine, but after the last reboot, one monitor says "out of range" and the other says "cannot display this resolution. Well I went back in with gparted and erased the w7 partition, but it still shows up on my boot menu. how do I get rid of it? thanks

    My personal preference for editing the Vista bootloader is EasyBCD from NeoSmart as it is very simple to use and allows you to conveniently edit everything in one place. It will also allow you to delete an entry quite easily.
