You should NOT overwrite your Windows XP install with this version of Vista.
It's only for testing, not for full time use. You'll be sorry if you do,
especially if you have things on your computer that you want to keep, such
as music and documents. Install Vista in a dual boot configuration, or on a
test machine.

Who is the Windows Vista BETA 2 for?

IT Professionals, Developers, Enthusiast, people who like to back up their
data and try out new things and don't have issues just in case something
goes wrong installing the software.

How should I install Windows Vista BETA 2?

This is very important, ensure you are installing on a clean logical
partition with enough free space. If you have a spare installation of
Windows XP SP2 you don't mind ruining, you can upgrade from that or you can
start the new installation by booting from the DVD drive, (make sure your
boot drive in your BIOS is set to the optical drive). I launched setup from
within XP, type in my Product Key > Accept the EULA > click Custom > select
the partition you created for Windows Vista.

I personally would not install Vista on a production system since there is
always the risk of system failure. Install it on a spare computer or logical
partition.
