no sorry,os-x,which may i say is a excellent operating system on the mac,cannot be installed as a dual boot with any windows os,there are reasons for this
1.windows uses different boot configurations to os-x
2.unlike p.c,s ..mac os-x dosent use a bios,this is why you need to load "boot camp" when you want to use a mac on a p.c(but this is only in a virtual enviroment)
i had this idea a few years ago,tried everything just wouldnt work
i have one of my p.c,s dual booted with windows xp and linux mandriva(excellent linux distro with great 3d desktop ect)
good luck mate!

If you partition it into 14 drives then your wasteing your time, but it is possible if you buy a mac and write PC on the side with a sharpie and do the OS-X dance and spin around four times without blinking and scream "Warsen Garsen" iot might work.
Long story short it is impossible ;-)

Just like the previous poster, add it the way you would add another OS, triple boot4tw
But my question...why would you want to run OSX? There is really no point since you have vista and xp.

Sure make your hard drive into 3 total partitions....with each OS on them

If you are running a PC there's no way can you put a Mac OSX on it but if you buy the latest Mac they come with both systems installed. Time for a change for the better???

EasyBCD 1.5 claims to be able to do it. I haven't tried it yet, though
