Re: XP and Vista in dualboot

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Sorry, but there's a little thing i can't understand in the article:

You can use this workaround only when the restore points for Windows XP
and for Windows Vista are mutually exclusive. The restore points are mutual
exclusive when no restore points are common across the volume in Windows XP
or the volume in Windows Vista.

What does it mean?
In the system properties of WinVista, and in the system properties of WinXP, i
must not have the same drives checked?

For example, consider the following scenario:
• The C driver is a volume in Windows XP. • The D driver is a volume in Windows Vista.

Does it mean that Vista is installed in the D partition, and XP in the C one?

In this scenario, the Windows Vista restore points are added on the E driver.

What?!

Waiting for answers, bye!
