  Excuse me, to dual boot, you install OLD OS before NEW OS.
  
  That means you need to install XP FIRST before VISTA.
  
  Now that you can't boot, try repairing Vista.
  
  Since it's a pre-loaded version, check the manual on how to recover from within the partitions of your hard disk.
  
  Don't know, search your PC manufacturer website and download their userguides. Follow it throughout.

  Read my post? And also read your manual. Different pre-loaded PCs have different buttons to press. If unsure, post your PC Brand + Model.
  
  Better yet, just wipe it out with another OS to start all over again.
