OS: Windows XP SP2



hi all, i've been using xp home as my OS, but recently i just installed vista ultimate on a separate partition hard drive because my friend told me i could dual boot, but i haven't been able to get it working so i decided to just uninstall windows xp home. Am I able just to format the drive? and if i do will it change any bios settings that would make vista unbootable?

Or if anyone knows a step-by-step tutorial to get dual boot working would be better. I have installed xp home and vista ultimate on 2 separate hard drives, that's all, I do not know how to use vistabootpro or EasyBCD.

Thanks in advance
