Any reason to not use Windows XP over Vista? (or vice versa).
 
only reason i went to vista was because i supports more than 2 gpus in xfire. although vista 64 is nice once you get used to it.
 
I don't use XP-64 due to it not being well supported. I use XP-32, and Visat-64 in dual-boot. I use V-64 for DX10 games, and XP-32 for DX9 games. I've started to use Vista more for day-to-day tasks, but there are still bugs/issues that make me want to keep XP-32 on my system.
 
i also do the dual boot with xp32 mostly for running benches though. it works great. i prefer faster boots and having to choose obviously slows the process a bit but its fine besides that.

I wouldn't have it any other way. Eventually I'll probably migrate to Vista-64 exclusively.

You can use EasyBCD in Vista to adjust the default OS, and the wait time. I have mine set to 2sec, so it doesn't slow boot time that much. I just have to be quick if i want to boot to the non-default OS.
