Other half has a computer where the hd has been partitioned, and one half is running XP Pro, and the other half Vista Home Premium.

when he turns the computer on, unless he hits the button to tell it to boot into XP, it automatically boots into Vista, is there anyway of telling the computer that he wants XP to be the default boot up, or will Vista always think it take priority?

Many thanks

thanks chaps, I printed it off and left it with him, and he has managed to do it, so now it boots into XP.

But does anyone know how he renames them? the XP one is calling it self 'an older version of windoze'

Thank you all, he followed LOGik's directions, and has managed to change it, and so is now a happy chappy (which means a big thank you from me too!)
