O.P. RE: Little vista problem
Okay, i went to XP and edited those settings, but there was just 'windows xp' in the name, and only 1 OS. 2 things that don't fit in other words. But there was this: "use bcdedit.exe for Vista boot options". I remember that Vista takes over the boot manager from Windows XP, so I started up the bcdedit.exe in DOS. There i do have the 2 operating systems listed with their names as the bootup displays it. But how do i edit that then :p
But that is my opinion!

RE: Little vista problem
The best solution I have found to booting problems is a wonderful little program called VistaBootPRO. It is a free downoad (sorry I don't have a link) and gives a nice GUI. It can also be installed in either of you OS's.

Hope this helps
