EDIT (02-13-2009): PLEASE READ THIS NOW. IT HAS IMPORTANT INFORMATION! I thought I would inform/warn everybody who watches this video that it IS OUTDATED/INACCURATE. I am not sure if my dual-boot setup was done correctly; it DID work, I am just not sure if my setup was how it should have been. I have removed all previous links that were here before. I don't want to just leave this inaccurate video on YouTube without providing some more accurate information, so I have compiled some resources below that will hopefully guide you in your process of dual-booting XP and Vista on a Sony Vaio VGN-N220E: uTorrent- http://utorrent.com/download.php .torrent file (for Vista Recovery Disc) http://neosmart.net/blog/2008/download-windows-vista-x64-recovery-disc/ (Scroll down and select "Windows Vista Recovery Disc x86 edition") ImgBurn- http://www.imgburn.com/index.php?act=download (Select Mirror 7) EasyBCD- http://neosmart.net/dl.php?id=1 (Scroll down until you see the blue download button) Hottfix (for sound driver)- http://couponmeister.com/blog/HD_Audio/KB835221.exe Drivers- Some time after I had made this tutorial, Sony put many XP-compatible drivers for the VGN-N220E up on their website. You should use these instead of the ones that were up here previously (that I took down). Here is the link to those drivers: http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/swu-list.pl?mdl=VGNN220E&SelectOS=7 Correctly dual-booting- As I said earlier, I don't think my dual-boot configuration was correct, so here is a link that will hopefully help you set up a correct dual-boot configuration: http://www.raymond.cc/blog/archives/2007/10/06/how-to-dual-boot-vista-and-xp-... A quick note about the sound driver: I believe the video should still be correct on how to install the sound driver: simply download and install the hottfix (link is above) on XP, not Vista, and then restart your computer. Ignore any "Found new Hardware Wizards" that popup before you restart; just restart your computer. Boot back into XP, and eventually you should see a "Found new Hardware Wizard" popup. Follow the wizard, which should install the sound driver. code pour embarquer la vidéo : >>> http://www.youtube.com/embed/aALtk_dOjLs <<< |
