Vista Installation freezes at Completing Installation stage.
You need the full version to be able to use XP after the Vista install. The upgrade version invalidates the license of XP. It has been a long time since I installed an upgrade Maybe someone with more recent experience could answer your question. All manuals I have specify doing a dual boot using a full version.

That Vista original registration is only good for the original PC composition that it was installed on.
