When dual booting like that, you have to install the OS's in an oldest to newest order.

I've never used Vista Boot Pro, so I can't answer that question. Really, all you have to do is install XP on the first partition and then install Vista on the second partition. When the computer boots up, it will give you a choice of which OS to boot into.
did wid vista boot pro....thx

That's not actually true, you can install newest then oldest (ie: Vista then XP)
Follow this guide it works perfectly, I did it.
I guess I've been doing it the old skool way then.

the easiest method is that if u have a vista CD boot from vista cd and then choose the repair method and a new screen will appear and then from there choose repair startup problems and then it will repair it and in boot section after restarting the computer it will show windows vista and windows xp !!! this is the easiest way to do it !!!
or you can just use vmware on vista like i did.
My PC has never been able to connect via adb, and after weeks of searching around, reinstalling drivers 99 times etc, I finally gave up. That was months ago.
Today I found my Nexus One wasn't able to connect either (yes, new drivers), I knew it was something with Windows. I am using Windows XP 64 bit and I found this:
Does adb not work on windows xp 64? I followed the directions and it didnt work.
no. But there is an unofficial driver for Vista x64 which works on XP x64 too. Read here.

Eureka! No wonder!!!
Unfortunately, the "fixed" file is extremely old, so it won't work for my G1, nor especially for the Nexus One.
Has anyone out there been able to use adb with ANY Android device on Windows XP 64 bit?
No. I used to use Windows XP 64-bit. You need to upgrade to a new operating system, trust me.
Edit: The one guy who says the drivers work on xp-64 is incorrect or simply lying. I wasted a lot of time thanks to that jackass post.
I'm on win 7 64-bit and it connected without a hiccup.

THANK YOU
Finally, someone else in the same boat! People kept telling me to reinstall drivers a billion times. Now I know it's true. Thanks!

Windows 7 64 =/= Windows XP 64
Also just found this:
I think this has something to do with 64-bit Windows not being supported by the drivers.

k0z you are incorrect. I just looked at my usb_driver folder included with the android sdk, it shows the files: androidwinusba64.cat, and a folder named amd64 for 64 bit installations, along with an i386 folder and androidwinusb86.cat for 32 bit installations.

Just because there is a folder and some files for it, doesn't mean it works.
That's why I'm asking if there's anyone who has *actually used* adb on Windows XP 64 bit.

actually, thats exactly what it means. the androidwinusb64.cat is the catalog for windows 64 bit.
EDIT: Just follow this guide, but use the latest adb drivers not the one provided in the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=502010
Latest drivers are found here: http://djdoprkngutub.cloudfront.net/usb_driver.zip
While I'm sure a number of attempts have been made, and it's even possible that there are successful drivers out there now, I find this highly unlikely and I know that I personally wasted too much time trying to get this to work on my XP-64 machine.
There's really no support any more for Windows XP-64, in regards to Android or anything else as far as I can tell. Vista sucked, but it's time for you to make the jump to 7 I think

I found these files as well, none of them ever worked. Does this one work? Have you used it? Furthermore, it doesn't look like any of these indicate that they are for Windows XP at all.
well I am not sure that it works on XP 64, but It has been confirmed working on 64 bit Vista and 7.

Have you tried it? Do you know of anyone who has gotten it working? That's my point
Trust me, I've researched this for weeks on end. I know how to install adb.
And now that I see others with the same problem, I know it's just not possible.

Yes, I know. But not Windows XP 64. ([Edit]: Just updated the title for clarity.) Until there is someone who has gotten it working on XP 64, I am 100% sure it's not possible.
Tell you what. Make a video of you clearly showing that you're running Windows XP 64 bit and adb working, throw it on YouTube, and I'll donate $10 to you. Sound good?

I'm not sure what that has to do with anything. Just because a newer version is out, doesn't mean everyone on the planet will magically stop using XP.
If Microsoft had their way, we'd have arbitrary full OS updates every year. Obsolescence express!
I just spent the past 4 hours backing up 35 GB of data to DVDRs, reformatting my hard drive, installing Windows XP 32 bit, and reinstalling all hardware drivers etc.
I now just plugged in my G1, installed the usb drivers and BOOM, adb works perfectly.
I'm now 1000% sure that the Android usb drivers cannot be used in Windows XP 64 Bit. Hopefully this helps others out there.

I have not purchased Windows 7.
I never said purchase
I confirm also here that USB drivers shipped with android SDK does not work on Windows XP 64 bit. The phone is correctly recognized by OS but ADB does not list any device.
Is there any news about this issue?
Just made the switch from ubuntu 10.10 to windows 7, didnt have issues using my cappy as a mass storage device on ubuntu
On win7 x64 if I try to transfer a file thats just more than a few mb's either from the cappy to the pc or vice versa, the transfer just gets stuck, the loading bar is flashing but it doesnt get anywhere. I have to unplug my phone from the computer in order for it to go away, this causes windows explorer(not the internet browser) to restart as well.
-my other usb devices work without a problem
-have tried all six usb ports on my computer, same thing
-even weirder, i reformatted, installed win7 x86 just to see, transfers work fine on it. Reformatted again and installed x64 with fingers crossed, transfers didnt work on it again.
-I have tried transferring files with no windows updates installed on x64 as well as all updates installed, file transfers still get stuck both ways.
-im using the x64 captivate drivers from the odin3 thread on xda. running andromeda3 ROM.
anyone know what this could possibly be?

sounds like bad drivers from samsung or windows is not using the newest driver version, maybe downloading drivers from samsung and manually installing would help
32 bit version of windows will have different drivers
I installed .net 4 and that seems to have fixed my problem, if that makes any sense.
makes sense. i keep forgetting about that but it is something you should have for alot of things in windows, thought it was one of the required things for adb and odin as well. not sure though

I'm lucky enough to have a roomate with a dual boot ubuntu/windows so I can keep my Ubuntu and borrow his windows machine when I need it. Definately sounds like driver/ .net 4 issues though.
can this thing run windows 8? i mean it has a x86 cpu...
Maybe, but because it's only a 8 GB large disk it won't let you install it. Also there is probably no way to actually boot it, or start the installation, because I don't believe it's a fully compatible BIOS in the mobile.
So I think it's not possible.

remixosplayer.exe is not even opening.
For me, remixosplayer.exe just doesn't open. I've run this as an administrator, no luck. Then when i saw the instance in task manager, remixosplayer.exe does run, but closes immediately. What should i do?
