I istalled Vista, my advanced option F8 for Vista is there, but the XP one has gone.
it happens, you need to boot into Vista, then set the XP boot as the 1st option. When you boot up you need to be tapping F8 and at the same time hit the enter key to boot into XP or Vista depending what you want.

Bloody memory, I remember how to find it on XP, I found the settings in administrator tool on Vista, its the wrong one, beaker how do you do it thanks.
While not the problem here but I think relevent for reading folk
If you doing your bios button and it is not working and your a USB keyboard it is not kicking in yet and you needs an old style keyboard or the converter into the keyboard slot so the mobo can pick it up.
Some new motherboards I got for people still cant pick the keyboard up from boot if usb
