    Well, I think here is no vista user. As we are not so bold as you are. By getting vista disk, if you mean to boot from CD, you must change your boot order from BIOS and set CD as a first boot device. (see how to get into your BIOS : http://www.cyberwalker.net/faqs/reinstall-reformat-winxp/enter-BIOS.html)
    But for dual boot you must have different 2 partitions. If this phase is ok, we can go on later.

    I'm not suprised... Just find a way to get the real thing. We can't really help you with pirated software.

    http://www.computerhope.com/jargon/w/warez.htm  You obtained the software illegally, using a burnt CD. That's warez bud.

      Even if it wasn't, you've gotta be crazy to get a beta Operating System! :o
