I have Vista installed on Drive G: (from XP or XP64 my two other OS's).
Upon bootup of Vista it shifts drive letters and maps itself on C:

Now I can live with that but happens if I move/delete other drives? I have
XP on C: but as of now it is trashed and I'm considering getting rid of it
totally. Drive F: is XP64 and I'd be interested in having Vista is my
primary where XP used to be and using XP64 for those things Vista can't do
yet.

Comments on my options would be appreciated.

You can't delete the system volume. I don't know how the Vista loader
identifies drives and partitions, but that is something you should
know before you delete or move drives or partitions.
