Just a little help

I want to triple boot XP, Vista, and OSx86...

 

I recently had a triple boot of XP, Vista, and Ubuntu, but I dislike Ubuntu.

 

Now, I had it going great with drive letters and all. C: was XP, J: was Vista... I forget what Ubuntu was but the point is, I had no problems.

 

Now just recently I had all 3 installed, able to boot all 3 from the bootloader, I was so happy. Then I noticed.. when I booted XP, C: was XP and D: was Vista. Weird.

 

Then I boot Vista. C: was Vista, and D: was now XP. Very weird. The other weird thing was that the files in each one would still be in the correct places. It was as if the drive letters were just switched, but the files stayed in place. I figured this would cause problems eventually, so I quit.

 

The order I did it in that time was OSx86, XP, and Vista.

 

Then I tried XP, OSx86, and Vista, but after the two installations, Vista couldn't find a place to install.

 

So now I am starting over with XP first. Any help on which one to do next?

 

I was thinking of doing Vista first, to make sure drive letters are correct, then installing OSx86, and since I do not have a USB keyboard yet, reinstalling XP right over the old one on C: to make it active.

 

Sound good?
