I had partition my 40GB HD into C: (30GB) D:(10GB). C: For winxp and D: for Vista. Now my D: only got 4gb after clean install of vista. Vista really makan lot of spaces

I know that it must be the other way around but I'm not planning to use vista until I've enough money to upgrade. Actually, I just want to try the new OS.

mzaidi,
Not necessary both of partition empty. Previously, I already have install winxp in drive C:, and some file and folder in drive D:. I have no problem installing vista in the drive D:, and all files and folder previously in drive D: is intact.

Of course not, because you're install new windows in different partition. But if you install in the same partition, which is upgrading your winxp, you'll probably get what you want.

Have the same problem before. WinXP in C:, and Vista in D:. Fortunately, I have 2 HD. So I transfer all my file into the 2nd HD. Really tedious job. I also tried any possible way like you do to deleted the vista file, but failed. The only way is to format again like I did.

Did you really got that? So, no more blue screen of dead or hang, but new dialog box?
