Before I mess up a good dual boot

P

Paul

I have XP and Vista on 2 separate hard drives. Seems I may have a sneaky
virus on the XP side and I don't trust that the scans got everything so I
want to reinstall
XP. Since it's best to have XP installed before installing Vista, can I
reformat and reinstall XP on that same drive again without it messing the
boot? Meaning, will Vista's bootloader be changed or will it just see the
XP
boot info and not even know it was reinstalled?
Thanks
