I have Vista installed on an 80Gb drive and am wanting to create a 40Gb partition to enable me to dual-boot Vista and XP, with each OS having half the drive space available. However, when I use the Vista disk management utility, I am only able to create a 20Gb partition using the shrink option. Is there any way I can obtain my desired 50:50 split.
 
I'm not sure, but I think that vista won't let you to put windows xp after, I suggest you to backup your machine, run some util from dos for example partition magic, delete all partitions and make 2 primary partitions...than you can put windows xp on the first one and vista on the second one...
