for pure gaming I would rate XP better ....vista hogs too much of the system itself.....yes you can install both.....clean format the system and then install XP first and vista next.....

I guess someone posted a guide on this forum.....search for it...

XP has slightly better framerates in games that in Vista. But latest DirectX 10 games do need Vista to show the extra eye candy.

Try Windows 7 instead.:)
