here's guide how dualboot xp , vista vista installed first: http://apcmag.com/how_to_dual_boot_vista_and_xp_with_vista_installed_first__the_stepbystep_guide.htm
other if can't make work, i'd recommend reinstalling vista (if need xp too, partition drive in two, install xp first , and vista on second partition.)
