I have 4 SATA hard drives installed. Is it possible to have 2 Vista and 1 XP
loaded on 3 separate hard drives and boot from either of the three? Thank you

There are some problems with SATA drives which some people have
worked around by disconnecting all drives during the install except
the target drive, and reconnecting them afterwards. This apparently
is just an installer problem.

You must install them in order XP then Vista. check up on
BOOTSECT.exe for configuring each partition.

XP and Vista use incompatible multiboot schemes.
