Partitions not Vista compatible?

Posted: 04-19-2007, 07:24 AM
I was thinking of a dual boot setup with Widows 2000 pro and Vista Home
Premium. I have 2 sata drives.The 1st one(WD 160GB SATA 2) has W2k pro on
C:\ and Space for other stuff on E:\., D:\ is my DVDRW. 2nd drive is a 250GB
Maxtor SATA 1 with one large partition for Vista.
Everything is formatted with partition magic. I have it this way because
already had W2k pro installed and got Vista as a surprise gift.

BTW my partition looks like this:Problems?
