Dive right into triple-booting your computer with Windows XP, Windows Vista and Ubuntu Linux 7.10.

This 30-minute walk-through video tutorial (split into 4 parts) walks you through the partitioning and installation processes of Windows and Ubuntu.

Learn how to correctly configure your harddrive to handle all three operating systems.

Use this tutorial to simply dual boot between Windows XP and Windows Vista. Or between Windows and Ubuntu.

Use this tutorial to learn how to install Ubuntu without needing to reformat or reinstall your current Windows installation.

  • Hey it's me again. Great stuff again...

    Ubuntu is such a great Linux OS. They have a number of distro's for education, kids, and some of the plug-ins or extensions built in now like BERYL make other OS's jealous, they are so beautiful! Microsoft is playing catch up to Apple & Linux in that department for sure.

  • Well,it was the ...

    Well,it was the second time i had set up dual-boot with XP/7.04 on my other comp,-the first was with Ubuntu 7.10 and everything worked great but i had extremely slow download speed and none of the tips/tweaks i found fixed it, so i wiped the harddrive while i DL'ed 7.04 liveCD, reinstalled XP and installed 7.04--downloads were back to speed but no effects "No composite extension", supposedly ATI X series cards are not supported. Tryed many guides to try to fix, so now I'm gonna try out 8.04 LOL
