Solved: Both XP and Vista on 1 computer
Is it possible to partition both Vista and XP on the same computer? If so, do you think it will work fine or should I expect some problems?

It will work fine if you do it right. Install XP, make a partition for Vista in the process, and then after XP is up and running, install Vista to the other partition. Vista setup will create the boot menu so you can choose which you want.
