Problems with dual boot

Posted: 06-24-2006, 09:11 PM
I have an ACER Aspire T-650 w/ 2.8ghz proccesor, 160 gig hdd, 1.5gb ram. The
hard drive is a Seagate SATA drive. When I try to install on a formatted
partition from Win XP I get a message that windows can't find the ULi
....controller. When I try to boot and load Vista on the partition (it is a
primary partition) I get the message to load the hard drive driver. I am new
to dual booting and to SATA HDD's. I can't seam to get it to load and there
are no drives listed in the box that is supposed to list the drives. I have
succesfully upgraded to vista from XP however I would like to keep the OS's
seperate due to some drivers and software that is not Vista ready. Any help
would be greatly appreciated.

Dave
