Is that xp on c: and vista on d:. If not, better do this way.

For now, try to repair XP using XP boot CD.

 

[kudos_sam]

yeah its XP on C: n VISTA on D:
but thats what I did but repairing installs d whole OS again and I cannot boot in VISTA n I have to again reinstall it, but d problem keeps cropping up after that. How to do it??

 

[ambandla]

okay. Now try this

Boot into Vista

Open disk management. (start -> control panel->comp. mgmt.->disk mgmt)

Make XP's partition as Active partition. (right click on xp's partition and Mark partition as active).

Reboot and see if XP boots properly
