Xp and Vista?

Has anyone installed XP Pro and Vista Home Prem. on the Same Computer? I actually have two separate hard drives on this computer. What could be the issues with this setup? How did you do it?

I have found that every time I have installed Vista into a computer, I get problems.
When I get a computer that has Vista I have no problems.
I prefer and use Vista on desktop builds, because Vista is a RAM whore. I have a desktop with Vista on one drive and XP on the other, but since the Vista drive is the primary, it never attempts to load XP.
Also all my Vistas came from Tigerbytes and I think that alone may have been part of the problem because it was so hard to register them.
I really can't see there being a problem, you can always change boot order in system setup.
