Do you have your Vista copies installed in separate partitions? If so, just format one Vista partition. Problem solved. And use a partitioning app like PartitionMagic to recover the space.
If that's not your setup... then let us know.

yeah, that should work. Partition magic is a fairly simple program to use as well. there are some other free programs out there that you might want to look into as well. But anyway, you dont need the xp disc.

yeah, you just right click on "my computer". go to manage. Then expand the storage link. then click on disk managment. then format whatever partition you want. Actually, now that i think about it, that method is for an xp machine. Im running Vista as well, but i can image the process isn't very far off.
