Well, It's suppose to be possible, but some are having troubles.

Yes - I have XP and Vista as dual boot on a computer networked (crossover
cable) with another XP computer - networking and ICS working great!!

I have an XP Home system connected to my laptop running Vista.

I have had trouble with printer sharing (can't print from the Vista machine)
but file sharing is doing fine. I have a router so I don't know about ICS.

To "BigK" - I print from Vista to a HP 3740 connected directly to Vista
computer and to a HP 1310 connected to a network XP computer
Setting up the network printer went something like this: Set printer via XP
for sharing - gave share name hp1310 then:
1. Add printer via Vista
2. Select Network printer (Printer attached to
another computer)
3. Used the UNC path to the printer - in my case
\\roco-pro\hp1310
4. OK

hey guys if you want to duel boot you need to get a program called Bootit
ive got both vista and xp pro running on the same computer

p.s but my dam printer doesnt work on vista (lexmark X6170 \\
